'Since no one is complementing ... ': Shreyas Iyer's cheeky take after breathtaking Hardik Pandya catch - WATCH

NEW DELHI: Shreyas Iyer produced a moment of brilliance on the field, pulling off a stunning mid-air relay catch that left fans at the Wankhede Stadium in awe. The effort also drew priceless reactions from Rohit Sharma and Suryakumar Yadav, who watched it unfold from near the dugout, with their reactions quickly going viral.

After Punjab Kings sealed the win over Mumbai Indians, the franchise shared a video in which Iyer was asked, “Shreyas, one word for your catch?”

Iyer replied: “Spectacular”.

He added: “Since no one is complimenting, I shall give a pat to myself.”



Prabhsimran Singh and Iyer continued their fine form with the bat, scoring consecutive half-centuries and stitching a 139-run partnership for the third wicket as Punjab Kings cruised to a seven-wicket win with 21 balls to spare.

Earlier, Mumbai Indians were asked to bat, and Quinton de Kock, who replaced Rohit Sharma in the playing XI, smashed a brilliant unbeaten 112 off 60 balls. Naman Dhir chipped in with 50 off 31 balls as MI posted 195/6.

However, their efforts were overshadowed by the brilliance of Prabhsimran and Iyer, who guided PBKS to victory.




The duo had also scored fifties in the previous match against Sunrisers Hyderabad, and they carried that form forward. Prabhsimran remained unbeaten on 80 off 39 balls, while Iyer struck 66 off 35 balls as PBKS chased down the target, reaching 198/3 in 16.3 overs.

With this win, Punjab Kings climbed to the top of the points table with nine points, while Mumbai Indians stayed on two points, with one win and four defeats.
