Watch: India D Captain Shreyas Iyer celebration went Viral as he took wicket On His First Ball
On Friday during the Duleep Trophy match against India A India D captain Shreyas Iyer picked up a wicket in first-class cricket for the first time in almost six years. It was the final ball of Day 2 when Shreyas introduced himself into the attack and he was able to dismiss Mayank Agarwal on his very first delivery. It was a slightly flighted delivery that took Mayank by surprise and he ended up playing it straight back to the bowler. Shreyas took a good catch off his own bowling and his celebration said it all. The last time he took a first-class wicket was back in 2018 when he dismissed Saurashtra’s Chetan Sakariya.
Captain Mayank Agarwal and Pratam Singh half centuries helped India A reach 115 for one in their second innings and extend their hold over India D after second day’s play.

India A, who made 290 in their first innings, earlier bowled out their opponents for 183 despite India batter Devdutt Padikkal’s valiant 92 to gain a lead of 107 runs.
