Shreyas Iyer came out to bat with sunglasses and went down for a duck in his first innings during the Duleep Trophy match

In his team's inaugural Duleep Trophy encounter, India D skipper Shreyas Iyer made significant contributions with scores of 9 and 54. India D tried, but fell short, losing by four wickets against India C.

Shreyas Iyer chose to bowl first after winning the toss in their next game against India A. India D effectively dismissed Mayank Agarwal's India A for 290 runs at the Rural Development Trust Stadium in Anantapur, therefore proving this choice to be wise.

India D lost their first four wickets for only 55 runs, however, during their batting session. Arriving in after Atharva Taide's exit for 4 runs off 3 balls, Shreyas Iyer was removed without scoring and was out for a duck. His little visit at the crease, where he donned sunglasses—a look that immediately drew public notice—did not stay long as he left only seven balls.

Fans first praised his fashionable sunglasses style, but their opinions changed after he was mocked on social media after his early departure.

After being pushed back by India A, India D will want to make amends on the third day of the Duleep Trophy encounter. India D will try for a great comeback in this pivotal match, with the later leading in 222 runs. The game will start at 9:30 a.m.
