'No one threw their wicket away': Iyer's blunt response after 244-run defeat

Stand-in captain Shreyas Iyer acknowledged the impact of New Zealand’s bowling, particularly Matt Henry's six-wicket haul. India collapsed to just 89 runs while chasing a target of 334 after New Zealand posted 333 in their innings. Iyer emphasized that the Indian batters were dismissed by quality deliveries rather than poor performance. He urged the team to learn from the experience and remain confident from earlier victories.
