Long before Iyer scored a Test century on his Test debut, Amre had told him that he would come to his house for dinner only after he scored a Test century. “So after today’s match (not the match) but after today’s century, I will send him a message and invite him for dinner,” Iyer said after the second day’s play of the opening Test against New Zealand was over.

He also feels that seeing all the well wishes, he remembered his early days of playing. Iyer said, “I didn’t think I missed the opportunity, but I think of it like I didn’t get the chance. Because I was injured, but I was in good shape and I was very confident even in U-19. ,

He said, “Now I got a chance in Tests and already I scored a century and the feeling is different, I can’t describe it. He said, “I got a lot of messages and it was all about that this is an achievement and it is the best thing you achieve in your life. It reminded me of my cricket days in Mumbai. It’s a good feeling.”
