CRICKET
The right-hander looked good on Day 1 and it felt like he would get to his second Test hundred on Thursday.
On the second day of the first Test between India and Bangladesh, middle order batter Shreyas Iyer narrowly missed reaching his second Test match century. Ebadot Hossain dismissed Iyer during the first session of Day 2 with a peach, smashing the ball into the off stump.
Ebadot had already hit Iyer's off stump once before. He did so towards the end of Day 1 with a delivery from the off stump that stayed low. In the 84th over of Day 1, outfoxed Iyer was unable to negotiate that. Unfortunately for Ebadot, the zing bails did not come off, and Iyer stayed in the crease.
Iyer decided to remain in the crease because he anticipated receiving more short balls. However, he was cleaned up by a deft fuller delivery that was just straight enough to strike the stumps.
Shreyas Iyer did achieve a milestone by surpassing all previous run scorers for India in 2022, and many fans commended him for his reliability. Some people, however, were also frustrated that he wasn't able to capitalise on Bangladesh dropping him three times and reach his hundred.

4 drop catches + survive clean bowled still can't score century

No hate but if u get dropped so much and survive a clean bowled then u have to convert into 100 man

Someone who can't even play Ebadot or Anderson's bouncers,(these 2 don't even bowl bouncers to even tailenders ever only bowl to Iyer), doesn't deserve to play test cricket

The Indian innings was rebuilt by the Kolkata Knight Riders skipper working with Cheteshwar Pujara after the top order of Shubman Gill, KL Rahul, and Virat Kohli failed to score much. In order to keep India in the match, the duo managed 149 runs in 317 balls. Pujara was dismissed at 90 on Day 1, but Iyer survived. On the second day, he fell short of a well-deserved century.
