Iyer came in at the fall of Shubman Gill’s wicket at 89-2, and scored 27 runs off 59 balls, yet again failing to live up to the expectations.
During his stay at the crease, England’s bowlers relentlessly attempted to Iyer’s one glaring weakness in his batting – the short ball.
Instead of helping him counter England’s plan, his approach to facing the short balls has been trolled on social media, with some hilarious statements in addition to some extremely critical takes.

What next for Shreyas Iyer?
Iyer has been under severe scrutiny in the past few months as far as his performances in red-ball cricket are concerned.
The 29-year-old middle-order batsman has failed to convince the fans and the team with a string of mediocre displays.
Iyer is running a race against time to save his spot in India’s Test XI. With Virat Kohli expected to return to India’s squad for the next three Tests and KL Rahul nearing recovery, Iyer has just one more innings to give the team management a selection headache.
