Shreyas Iyer's Triumph: From Criticism to Glory with Back-to-Back 100s

In a stunning display of resilience and skill, Shreyas Iyer marked his return to form with a blistering 105 off just 70 balls during the semi-final clash of the 2023 World Cup, guiding Team India to a dominant 70-run victory over New Zealand. His remarkable performance not only secured India’s berth in the final but also showcased his ability to deliver under pressure.

India’s stellar batting effort saw them posting a colossal 397/4, the highest score in a World Cup knockout match, before efficiently dismantling the Kiwis, dismissing them in 48.5 overs in Mumbai. While Virat Kohli celebrated a milestone with his 50th ODI century in front of cricketing legend Sachin Tendulkar, it was Iyer’s sensational knock that stole the spotlight.

Iyer, who had faced substantial criticism earlier in the tournament for his inability to convert starts into substantial scores, rose above the doubts with a series of outstanding performances. Admitting to the frustration of early criticisms, Shreyas Iyer revealed his internal resolve during an interview with Star Sports after the match.

“I was getting the starts, but wasn’t able to convert them into big ones. But if you look at it (the stats), I was not out against Afghanistan and Pakistan, and then I had two bad innings. Then, people started saying that he has a problem. Inside, I was very angry, I was not showing it but I knew my time would come and then I’d prove myself. And it has come now, at the right time,” Iyer shared.

The batsman, who had made a comeback from injury during the Asia Cup only to be sidelined again due to back spasms, displayed sheer determination upon his return to the XI. His century against Australia in the final bilateral series ahead of the World Cup hinted at his prowess, setting the stage for his spectacular resurgence during the knockout stages.

Iyer’s ability to overcome his struggles against short-pitched deliveries and deliver consistently with scores of 82, 77, and now back-to-back centuries against Netherlands and New Zealand showcased his resilience and unwavering focus when the team needed it the most.

The emphatic display of skill and temperament has not only silenced the critics but has also established Shreyas Iyer as a pivotal asset for Team India, especially in high-pressure encounters. As the team marches into the final, Shreyas Iyer‘s redemption story stands as a testament to his determination and unwavering commitment to excel on the grandest stage of cricket.
