Most of the Indian cricket team players are busy preparing for the Border-Gavaskar Trophy and the tour of South Africa. The players who have not got a place in the Indian team selected for these two series are making their mark in domestic cricket. These include Shreyas Iyer, who has been looking for a return to the Indian team for a long time but has not been successful so far. Meanwhile, he has caused quite a stir in domestic cricket.
In fact, Shreyas Iyer’s bat is speaking loudly in the Ranji Trophy 2024-25. Last month, while playing for Mumbai, he scored a brilliant century against Maharashtra. And now he has caused a huge explosion by scoring a double century. He scored a brilliant century from the first day of the match against Odisha. In this way, he achieved the great feat of scoring a century in consecutive matches. After returning unbeaten on the first day, Iyer scored a stormy double century on the second day. With this Iyer created a great album.
Iyer said to attack with the bat
Shreyas Iyer scored his third double century in the Ranji Trophy with the help of 20 fours and 8 sixes in 201 balls. This is his first double century with his bat in Ranji after 9 years. Previously, he had achieved this great feat in the year 2015. Iyer returned to the pavilion after scoring 233 runs in 228 balls. He hit 24 fours and 9 sixes in his brilliant innings. In this way, Shreyas Iyer managed to achieve his highest score in the Ranji Trophy. Previously, Iyer’s highest score in first-class cricket was 202 runs not out.
Let us tell you that Shreyas Iyer played his last Test match against England in January this year. He was later left out of the team due to a back injury. A few days later, he was also dismissed from the central contract. However, after this, under his captaincy, the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) team managed to win the IPL 2024 title. Despite this, KKR did not retain it. Iyer will now be seen trying his luck in the mega auction.
