In the thrilling final held at Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad, Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) ended their 18-year title drought by defeating Punjab Kings by six wickets. A pivotal moment came when Iyer was dismissed cheaply for just one run, caught behind by wicketkeeper Jitesh Sharma off the bowling of Romario Shepherd.
Yograj Singh didn’t hold back on his criticism:
“The shot which Shreyas Iyer played in the final was a criminal offence, according to me. Ashok Mankad told me about this criminal offence, which comes under Section 302. He also told me that the repercussions of this is that you will be banned for two matches. What Shreyas did yesterday is not acceptable. There is no apology for that.”
Iyer’s early dismissal proved costly for Punjab Kings, shifting the momentum firmly in favor of RCB, who went on to lift the coveted IPL trophy after a long wait.
