Watch: Shreyas Iyer clean bowled! Mother celebrates after taking sons wicket

Fans on social media recently got a look at a fun and wholesome moment from Indian cricketer Shreyas Iyer's personal life. In a video that has now gone viral, Iyer was seen playing cricket with his mother, Rohini Iyer, inside their house. What made the clip stand out was his mother’s joyful celebration after she managed to bowl him out — a moment that delighted fans across social media. The video, shared by Punjab Kings on their official X handle, shows Iyer casually dressed in a white t-shirt and black shorts, playing barefoot with a plastic ball in their living room. The friendly game between mother and son took a hilarious turn when Rohini clean bowled the Indian star, and celebrated with sheer excitement — arms raised and a huge smile, like any proud cricketer. Punjab Kings captioned the post, “Only time SARPANCH won’t mind getting bowled! ♥️”, referring to Iyer’s nickname. Iyer, who recently represented SoBo Mumbai Falcons in the Mumbai T20 League after the IPL 2025 season, is currently on a break. Pictures of the cricketer in Kazakhstan had gone viral among fans earlier. The Indian Test team is in England for a five-match series, but Iyer was not picked for the squad, despite expectations that he might slot into the middle order following the Test retirements of senior players Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli.Iyer made his Test debut in 2021 against New Zealand and has played 14 matches so far, scoring 811 runs with one century and five fifties. The video gave fans a glimpse into Iyer’s personal side — relaxed and enjoying family time during a break from the international grind.
