'Easiest Way To Dismiss Shreyas Iyer Is...': Ex-Pakistan Star Points Out Weakness In Batter

Shreyas Iyer performed poorly with the bat in Mumbai's Ranji Trophy game against Jammu and Kashmir at Sharad Pawar Cricket Academy BKC, Mumbai. He scored 11 and 17 across the two innings during the match. Criticising Iyer for his failure, former Pakistan cricketer Basit Ali slammed him for his shot selection during the first innings. The right-handed batter was caught out at wide mid-on when trying to hit a fuller delivery off pacer Yudhvir Singh over the fielder. What made it look worse was the fact that Iyer attempted the shot when Mumbai were already six down in their innings. Ali picked it as the easiest way to dismiss the India batter in the Champions Trophy 2025.
