Shreyas’s century and interesting facts related to him

Iyer missed making this record
Had Iyer completed his century on the very first day of his Test debut, he would have become the third Indian to do so. Shreyas Iyer was at the crease after scoring 75 runs on the first day. Virender Sehwag and Prithvi Shaw are among the Indians who scored centuries on the very first day of their debut.

Shreyas scored 105 runs with the help of 13 fours and 2 sixes. His wicket was taken by Saudi.

This is also a strange thing
This is also rarely seen in international cricket, when two opposition players are playing in the same match and both are born in the same city. Shreyas Iyer was born in Mumbai and New Zealand’s left arm spinner Ajaz Patel was also born in Mumbai. The next test is in Mumbai.
