IND vs ENG: Time is running out very fast for Gill and Iyer – Aakash Chopra warns both the batsmen

India scored 336/6 in their first innings at stumps on day one in Visakhapatnam on Friday, February 2. Gill and Iyer contributed 34 and 27 runs respectively, while Yashasvi Jaiswal scored an unbeaten 179 runs. In a video shared on his YouTube channel, Chopra said that Gill and Iyer will get just one more chance to save their places in the Test XI. Aakash Chopra warns Shubman Gill and Shreyas Iyer He said, “Time is running out very fast for Gill and Iyer. They have one more innings and I really hope they score runs because if their next innings is not good, it will be difficult for both of them to make a place in the team.” The former India opener believes that Gill had to struggle against James Anderson after a good start. They said that, “Shubhman Gill got a start. He played a little aggressively in the beginning, but after that, James Anderson hit three outside edges in two overs. The third edge also went to the keeper and he was out. He ruined a good start. 34 runs will not be enough to save a place in the team.” Regarding Shreyas Iyer Aakash Chopra Said, “Shreyas Iyer also had a disappointing performance. The way he was moving in the crease was not giving much confidence. You don’t usually see a batsman moving like this against a fast bowler in Test cricket. Despite the short balls not having much pace, he was moving a lot and eventually got out. You can say that the ball remained a little low and he was a little unlucky, but he was not stable at the crease.”
IND vs ENG: “Bouncer Baby” – When Shreyas Iyer failed with the bat, fans gave such reactions
Shreyas Iyer’s bat has not been working in Test cricket for some time now. Shreyas Iyer (Pic Source-Twitter) The second match of the two-match Test series between India and England is being played in Visakhapatnam. In this match, Team India captain Rohit Sharma won the toss and decided to bowl, which seems to be proving correct so far. Indian opening batsman Yashasvi Jaiswal has confirmed the captain’s decision by completing his century. However, apart from Jaiswal, no other batsman could do anything special. Team India has lost three wickets so far. India suffered three setbacks in the form of Rohit Sharma, Shubman Gill and Shreyas Iyer. Rohit was shown the way to the pavilion by Shoaib Bashir and Shubman Gill was shown the way to the pavilion by James Anderson. Shreyas Iyer was made his victim by Tom Hartley. It seemed that Shreyas Iyer was set to play a big innings. But he was out disappointingly. The ball hit the inner edge of his bat and went into the gloves of wicket keeper Ben Fox. Iyer was out after scoring 27 runs. Shreyas Iyer’s performance in Test cricket has not been that good for some time now. Earlier, his performance in the South Africa series was also disappointing. The Indian team has entered this match with three changes. Kuldeep Yadav has returned to the team. Apart from this, Rajat Patidar and Mukesh Kumar have also been successful in making place in the playing eleven. In the first match of the series held in Hyderabad, India had to face defeat by 28 runs. In such a situation, Team India is trying to make a comeback by winning this match. Whereas Sarfaraz Khan will have to wait longer for his debut. The English team, which is leading the series 1-0 after winning the Darabad Test, will be eyeing to double its lead here, while Rohit Sharma and Brigade would like to make a comeback in the series. Fans gave such reactions after Shreyas Iyer’s dismissal KP so eagerly wants to call Shreyas a cuck 😭😭😭 — Fake IndianHesson (@IndianHesson) February 2, 2024 Can’t see a Test career for Shreyas any longer, unless he is dropped and drastically changes attitude / game. Shubman’s problem can be sorted and age on his side. — Indrajit.Ghose (@IndrajitGhose6) February 2, 2024 Time to say packup to Shreyas Iyer and Shubhman Gill. — Naadan Parinda (@NParinda91012) February 2, 2024 Shreyas Iyer fans are the 🤡🤡🤡🤡 I’ve ever seen. Will whine if he hits a couple of 6 and goes underground whenever he fails which is all the time. #INDvsENGTest — AGK (@itzme_av) February 2, 2024 Shreyas Iyer ko ball bounce ho to problem thaa…Even if the ball does not bounce, there is a problem. — A True Nationalist 🇮🇳 (@AreOhSambha) February 2, 2024 Good, but Rajat’s ability > Shreyas’ – he looks more assured at the crease. Batting is not just about talent, also about assurance. — Ajinkya Revdikar (@revdikarajinkya) February 2, 2024 Jhatke ka prince=Shubhman gill Bouncer baby=Shreyas iyyar — Shanbag (@Shanbag282845) February 2, 2024…
