India vs Sri Lanka, 2nd Test: Shreyas Iyer negates spinners on turner with superb 92, pacers put Sri Lanka on the mat under lights
Shreyas Iyer's pyrotechnics with the bat drove India to a position of strength after Sri Lanka made early inroads on a spinner-friendly track with the second Test heavily tilting in favour of the hosts on Saturday. The bright afternoon sun in the beginning of the Day/Night contest did not allow the pink ball to swing enough and trouble the batters but the early and sharp turn on offer made life tough for the Indians, who were tottering at 126 for five at one stage. Scorecard | As it happenedRishabh Pant began the counter-attack with his fiery 39-run knock and Iyer carried forward the recovery work with his scintillating 92-run knock that helped India post a decent 252 in their first innings. Iyer's entertaining knock, that came off 98-balls and had 10 fours and four sixes, negated all the good work done by the visiting bowlers in the first session when they had taken four wickets, including that of skipper Rohit Sharma (15) and Virat Kohli (23). Iyer missed out on what would have been a deserving second Test hundred as he was stumped off left-arm spinner Praveen Jayawickrama (3/81) while going for a big shot.
"Can't Play Negative On This Wicket": Shreyas Iyer On 92-Run Knock On Day 1 Of India-Sri Lanka 2nd Test
His counter-attacking knock put India in the driver's seat in the second Test against Sri Lanka and Shreyas Iyer asserted that batting with a defensive mind-set does not help on difficult wickets like the M Chinnaswamy track. Iyer's combative 92 under pressure guided India to 252 after the team was struggling at 126 for five. Batting fearlessly, Iyer charged down the wicket quite often, which he said was the best strategy to negate the spin. "My plan when I went out to bat was to cut down the spin (negate turn), so I decided to step out," Iyer told media after opening day's play.
