Captain Shreyas Iyer was furious after Shashank Singh’s run-out in the Qualifier 2 match against Mumbai Indians. Now, Shashank opens up about what happened.
He says Shreyas should have slapped him for that bad run-out.
Shashank’s dad didn’t talk to him until the final match after the incident.
The match against Mumbai was tight, but Shashank’s run-out was terrible.
He felt like he was strolling by the sea, not on the field.
Shreyas told him he didn’t expect that from him.
But later, Shreyas took him out for dinner.
Shashank played a great innings in the final against Bengaluru.
He hit 61 runs in 30 balls, with three fours and six sixes.
He thought they only needed 24 runs in the last over, but Bhuvneshwar Kumar bowled well.
Shashank’s calculations failed, and Punjab lost the final by six runs.
Shashank was disappointed, but he learned from his mistakes.
He will work on his game to come back stronger next season.
The young player has a lot of potential and is eager to prove himself.
Shashank’s story is a reminder that even in tough moments, players can learn and grow.
It’s not about giving up, but about getting back up and trying again.
That’s the spirit of cricket, and that’s what makes it so exciting.
