Indian cricketer Shreyas Iyer donned a new hairstyle ahead of the IND vs AUS World Cup final at the Narendra Modi Stadium on November 19. The right-handed batter looked dapper in his new style as he posed for the camera.
To note, Shreyas Iyer has been in prolific touch in the ongoing World Cup and has proved to be an asset for the Indian side in the middle-order. The right-handed batter has amassed 526 runs in just 10 games at an average of 75.14. He also smashed three fifties and two hundreds in the World Cup.
However, it was not the same case earlier in the World Cup as he had a couple of poor matches. After the match against New Zealand, Iyer spoke about his comeback and also stated that how people were starting to doubt him.
“I didn’t perform good in 1-2 matches at the start of the World Cup. I was getting the starts but wasn’t able to convert them into big ones. But if you look at it (the stats), I was not out against Afghanistan and Pakistan, and then I had two bad innings. Then, people started saying that he has a problem. Inside, I was very angry, I was not showing it but I knew my time would come and then I’d prove myself. And it has come now, at the right time,” Iyer said in a conversation with Star Sports.
Shreyas Iyer also credited skipper Rohit Sharma and head coach Rahul Dravid for their support during the bad phase. “It’s pivotal, coming from the captain and coach. I didn’t have a great start to the World Cup. They told me not to worry about the outside noise, we are backing you, so you just got to go out there and express yourself,” he said.
