Shreyas Iyer became the latest cricketer to give the fans a glimpse into his life as he shared an adorable video with his pet dog.

Many players of the Indian team are dog lovers and have a pet dog at their home. Staring with skipper Virat Kohli, former captain MS Dhoni, Rohit Sharma, KL Rahul to Umesh Yadav, all have furry friends within their residences.

Shreyas Iyer gives his dog ‘Betty’ catching practice:

Seems like Betty took inspiration from Sandy, as Iyer took to Twitter and shared a clip of his dog on Tuesday.

“Betty wanted to have a go too after watching Kane Williamson’s beautiful dog Sandy nail that catch. Took Betty a while but she’s got her first catch and immediately ran to celebrate,” wrote the 25-year-old Mumbai born player.

With the spread of the Coronavirus, all cricketing ties were abandoned and cricketers were advised to stay at home and practice social distancing. This, in turn, meant that various players such as Iyer, KL Rahul, Virat Kohli, etc have all been interacting with their fans a lot more.

Just a couple of days ago, Iyer did a question/answer session with his fans, wherein the right-handed batsman revealed a lot of details about himself, including the role models who have inspired him and much more.
