'A very tough ball for many batters' – Ambati Rayudu defends Shreyas Iyer after short-ball dismissal
Follow
During the second one-day international in Wellington, Shreyas Iyer contributed thirty runs from forty-six deliveries before his dismissal. The batter gloved a short delivery from Kyle Jamieson behind the wicketkeeper, continuing a trend of similar exits during the series.
Former player Ambati Rayudu defended the thirty-one-year-old athlete, explaining that the delivery seamed inward while the batsman attempted to withdraw his bat, making it an exceptionally difficult ball to negotiate rather than a technical flaw.
