Meanwhile, Venkatesh Iyer didn’t get the opportunity to bowl in the first two games, and he came out to bat when only a few overs were left. However, in the third game, things were different as he came out to bat in the 12th over and was able to score 20 runs. Meanwhile, he was given the opportunity to bowl 3 overs, and he gave away only 12 runs and was able to bag 1 wicket.

Iyer highlighted that a middle-order batter sometimes might have to bat in the powerplay when a team loses early wickets. He stated:

“There might be occasions where even though you are going to play in the middle-order, you might get to bat within the powerplay. That’s something I have really worked on – adapting to whatever situation I am going to play. I am going to look to better that.”

Venkatesh Iyer expressed his happiness on finally getting the opportunity to bowl. Also, he said that playing for India and winning the games is a special feeling. He said:

“That’s what I am in the team for – batting and bowling. It was good to get a bowl finally. Everyone aspires to play for the country. If the team wins and that too comprehensively, it’s a special feeling. I hope that this continues for a prolonged period of time.”
