Shreyas Iyer was brave under pressure: Virat Kohli

By Saurabh Sharma August 15, 2019 • 22:52 PM View: 1406

Port of Spain, Aug 15: After India registered a commanding series-clinching win over West Indies in the third ODI, skipper Virat Kohli was all praise for young batsman Shreyas Iyer, saying the 24-year-old has presented a strong case for himself to be a regular feature of the team in the limited-overs format.

Kohli, who scored 120 and 114* in the last two ODIs against the West Indies, on both the occasions, found able support in tricky situations from Iyer, who added partnerships of 125 and 120 with his captain and took India to victory.
