Shreyas Iyer shines against England

Indian batter Shreyas Iyer bounced back strongly after failing in the first two T20Is against Ireland, delivering a superb performance against England. Despite early wickets, he played a composed yet aggressive knock, scoring a half-century. Partnering with aggressive opener Abhishek Sharma, Iyer anchored the innings and provided stability when needed, earning praise for his maturity and control.

Former cricketer Parthiv Patel called it a “masterclass innings,” stating that critics questioning Iyer’s form would now be relieved. He highlighted Iyer’s smart strike rotation and controlled boundary hitting instead of over-relying on sixes. Parthiv also emphasized the importance of proper communication regarding young talent Vaibhav Suryavanshi, advising the coaching staff to handle the 15-year-old carefully and guide him appropriately.
