In India’s final league match of the 2017 ODI World Cup against the Netherlands, KL Rahul and Shreyas Iyer both played outstanding roles. While Iyer was batting at number four, he hammered 128* runs in 94 deliveries, and KL Rahul made history by becoming the fastest Indian player to reach 100 in World Cup history with 102 runs.
won the match by 160 runs thanks to the Men in Blue’s strong batting, which saw them score 410 runs. When discussing them, veteran Indian cricketer Sanjay Manjrekar said that both of these players are adept at handling pressure and letting it out occasionally by hitting a huge shot. In addition, he complimented them on their masterful middle-of-the-field strike rotation and said that the two cricket players’ distinct game plans were the cause for their World Cup win.
“KL Rahul and that man are perfect for India at that position because they are the kind of players who will not buckle under pressure after four or five dot balls. You can play a big shot to relieve some of the pressure.”
“These guys, even with five fielders inside the circle, will tick off the singles.” These guys are in different leagues. Everyone who plays Test cricket for India, including Rohit Sharma, Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli, KL Rahul, and Shreyas Iyer, is evident in the batting pedigree,” Manjrekar stated in an interview with Star Sports.
This batting order is full of things to be admired and amazed at: Sanjay Manjrekar
Against the Netherlands, all five of India’s top hitters were able to score runs, which should instill great confidence in them heading into the semi-final. He stated that while the Indian team has been dominating the competition, the Pakistani team has talent as well, but they haven’t yet realized their full potential.
This batting lineup is quite remarkable and full of things to behold. And last, the batting pedigree is all that comes to mind. These men are very experienced in many forms of batting. Not just Virat Kohli, mind you, but all of them appear to be polished pieces of work, in contrast to, example, Pakistan, who exhibit talent but haven’t yet gotten to the point where they are proficient in most batting techniques, Manjrekar remarked.
