‘I Am Over The Moon, To Be Honest’: Shreyas Iyer On Overwhelming Feeling Of Winning His First ICC Tournament
T20 World Cup: Indian batter Shreyas Iyer was left ‘over the moon’ after helping India, with a fighting 48-run cameo, to lift their third Champions Trophy title by beating New Zealand by four wickets in the final here on Sunday. Iyer ended the tournament as the second-highest run-getter having scored 241 runs in five matches behind New Zealand batter Rachin Ravindra. It is the right-handed top-order batter’s first-ever ICC title.
"I am over the moon, to be honest. It is pretty hard to sum it up in words. This has been my first ICC Trophy, and I am kind of overwhelmed by it. Kudos to each and every one in the dressing room. The way we have turned up in this tournament. It was simply magnificent.
“To be honest, I love to bat under pressure. I thrive under pressure, and I really, really like that challenge. I always want to get a big one, but if you can contribute enough for your Team and it leads up to a victory, that's more than enough for me. I am truly happy."
