The batsman scored a duck against Sunrisers Hyderabad in KKR\u2019s first match. He has been out of form since the 2024 World Cup, and he has only shown glimpses of redemption during Mumbai\u2019s final match of the Ranji Trophy. KKR lost early wickets in the form of Sunil Narine, Venkatesh Iyer, Shreyas Iyer, and Nitish Rana. The side was reduced to 49-3 when Rana lost his wicket to Mayank Markande.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Sunil Narine \u2705<br \/>Venkatesh Iyer \u2705<br \/>Shreyas Iyer \u2705<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/SunRisers?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@SunRisers<\/a> bowlers start off on a positive note \ud83d\udc4c\ud83d\udc4c<\/p>\n<p>Follow the match \u25b6\ufe0f<a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/xjNjyPa8V4\">https:\/\/t.co\/xjNjyPa8V4<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/TATAIPL?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#TATAIPL<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/KKRvSRH?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#KKRvSRH<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/HHZvHDeFZ4\">pic.twitter.com\/HHZvHDeFZ4<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 IndianPremierLeague (@IPL) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/IPL\/status\/1771545264081265012?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">March 23, 2024<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<div class=\"flex-1 overflow-hidden\">\n<div class=\"react-scroll-to-bottom--css-uzxoh-79elbk h-full\">\n<div class=\"react-scroll-to-bottom--css-uzxoh-1n7m0yu\">\n<div class=\"flex flex-col text-sm pb-9\">\n<div class=\"w-full text-token-text-primary\" data-testid=\"conversation-turn-7\">\n<div class=\"px-4 py-2 justify-center text-base md:gap-6 m-auto\">\n<div class=\"flex flex-1 text-base mx-auto gap-3 md:px-5 lg:px-1 xl:px-5 md:max-w-3xl lg:max-w-[40rem] xl:max-w-[48rem] group final-completion\">\n<div class=\"relative flex w-full flex-col agent-turn\">\n<div class=\"flex-col gap-1 md:gap-3\">\n<div class=\"flex flex-grow flex-col max-w-full\">\n<div class=\"min-h-[20px] text-message flex flex-col items-start gap-3 whitespace-pre-wrap break-words [.text-message+&]:mt-5 overflow-x-auto\" data-message-author-role=\"assistant\" data-message-id=\"62a6e8ce-efa7-42bf-b909-d3cfffaf0821\">\n<div class=\"markdown prose w-full break-words dark:prose-invert light\">\n<p>Shreyas Iyer will most likely aim to make a comeback in the next match, but much depends on identifying his weakness. A fan, however, has spotted Shreyas Iyer\u2019s vulnerability and highlighted two instances when Iyer lost his wicket in a similar fashion. A fan with the Twitter handle \u201cRonit Raj\u201d has noticed that Shreyas Iyer lost his wicket cheaply while attempting a drive, as he did when he scored a duck right at the start of the 2024 World Cup.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>https:\/\/twitter.com\/ronitraj7904\/status\/1771544676232802786<\/p>\n<p>Aside from identifying his weakness, fans couldn\u2019t refrain from criticizing the batsman for his inconsistency and attitude. Shreyas Iyer had previously been removed from his central contract by the BCCI for refusing to participate in the Ranji Trophy after withdrawing himself from the home Test series against England. Although the batsman had reported a back injury, he had been given clearance by the BCCI\u2019s medical team. Shreyas Iyer joined Kolkata Knight Riders in 2022. Last year, he was absent for the entire tournament due to injury, relinquishing the captaincy to Nitish Rana. He has played 15 matches for KKR so far, scoring 400 runs with a batting average of 400 runs.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">KKR was on 32 \u2013 2, then arrived massiah Shreyas Iyer<\/p>\n<p>now KKR are on 32 \u2013 3\u2026 All hail Shreyas <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/KKRvSRH?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#KKRvSRH<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/aqONfyw2K3\">pic.twitter.com\/aqONfyw2K3<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 V.
