The first match of the T20 series against Zimbabwe will be held in Harare on 23 July. Indian captain Shreyas Iyer has said something before the T20 series, after which the fans are cursing him. Actually, Shreyas Iyer said during the press conference in Harare that Team India lost in the England series but many positive things also came out of it. The fans started asking Iyer that what was positive there?
What did Shreyas Iyer say in Harare?
Let us tell you what Shreyas Iyer said in Harare. Iyer said, ‘I am very excited to be in Zimbabwe. I have come to Zimbabwe for the first time. The weather in Harare is amazing. The people here are very happy. Hoping for a good series. We saw difficult times in England but a lot of positive things also came out from there. We found out who is needed to take the team forward. What should be our state of mind? How to adapt oneself to the situation.
Victory is not easy in Zimbabwe
Shreyas Iyer admitted that winning in Zimbabwe will not be easy. He said, ‘This series will also be like a good challenge. Many players will play in Zimbabwe for the first time. Therefore, the sooner you adapt yourself, the better results you will get. Let us tell you that even during the ODI and T20 series in England, Team India was not able to adapt itself to the conditions there. The players of England had troubled the batsmen of Team India a lot with the short ball. Team India players had problems with the size and dimensions of the ground in Ireland. Now Zimbabwe team can also take advantage of this. Recently, Zimbabwe trapped Bangladesh on short balls at home and now it can use the same strategy against Team India.
