Shreyas Iyer scored a flamboyant half-century to guide India to victory over South Africa in the first ODI encounter on Sunday but a hilarious incident during his stay at the crease left everyone in splits. During the 9th over of the Indian innings, Iyer was facing Nandre Burger and while trying to play a pull shot, he lost his grip on his bat and it went flying towards square-leg. It landed ahead of the square-leg umpire and was returned by South African fielders as all of them shared a laugh. The video of the incident has gone viral and social media users have come up with their posts and memes.
