NEW DELHI: Shreyas Iyer may have missed out on a well-deserved century, but his innings was met with admiration and applause from all corners. He remained unbeaten on 97 as he walked back, yet the smile on his face made it clear — his focus was on contributing to his new team, Punjab Kings, who have been chasing their maiden IPL title since the tournament began in 2008.
At the end of the 19th over, Iyer stood at 97*, with Shashank Singh at the other end on 22 off 10 balls.
