“The reason for this is that there is a finger here (pointing at the forefront). I do not know what has happened. Yesterday I have been hit, I have to go and check what is the issue here. I was just giving messages to all the players to keep a positive body language, you post and feel that the game has gone away from you, but I am proud of this matter but I am proud of it.
For Punjab, Harpreet Barr returned with the best figures of 3-22 with important skulls of Vaibhav Suryavanshi (40), Jaiswal and Ryan Parag.
Iyer appreciated the performance of the left -arm spinner, who received him as a match player. “He has been consistent in the nets. He wants to do the best for himself, he was hungry for the occasion and today I think he stepped and brought him in his best, congratulated him and his mindset became tremendous the whole time.
“The completely brilliant approach and attitude is coming after the break, the boys were in high souls and we also needed a rest, moving forward in the tournament, it was the right time that we came together and showed such a mindset despite the situation. We saw that we saw that it was difficult to charge the spinners, we were hardly connected and in addition to a learning,”
