Shreyas Iyer falls prey to a suicidal run-out on 44 in IND vs ENG 2nd ODI 2025 [Watch] 

India’s middle-order batter Shreyas Iyer missed out on a well-deserved half-century in the second ODI against England at the Barabati Stadium in Cuttack on Sunday, February 9. The right-handed batter looked good for his 44 runs off 47 balls, laced with one six and three boundaries, before getting run out at the non-striker’s end.

The dismissal came in the 37th over of India’s run-chase. Axar Patel played a delivery straight towards Jos Buttler towards the square inside the 30-yard circle. Iyer ran halfway down the pitch before a call from Axar. In the meantime, Buttler threw the ball to the bowler Adil Rashid, who dislodged the bails in a flash. The right-hander had no time to rush back, he was nowhere in the frame.

Shreyas Iyer consolidated his place in the XI following his quickfire 59 off 36 balls in the series opener. The 30-year-old had played ahead of injured Virat Kohli (swollen knee). His knock helped the Men in Blue win the game by four wickets to take a 1-0 lead in the three-match series. The performance forced the team management to leave out Yashasvi Jaiswal to accommodate him in the XI.
