Shreyas Iyer won the Player of the Series award after he scored 204 runs in the T20I matches against Sri Lanka. The right-handed batter registered fifties in all three games of the series. "Firstly, I want to cherish this moment, I have achieved a really good total in this T20I series. I want to relax a bit, give myself time and not think too much beyond. I am just staying in the moment now. See if you are playing the T20I format, if you bat at top 3, that is a place from where you can pace your innings really well. If you bat down the order, you cannot give yourself time and you have to go from ball one," said Iyer during a virtual press conference.
