The incident took place when New Zealand were batting at 189/3 after 19 overs with Daryl Mitchell and Josh Jacobs present at the crease. Axar sent the ball towards the stumps from long-off, creating a possible run out opportunity.
Sloppy Prince Yadav
However, Prince, who was standing around the middle of the pitch after completing his delivery, was late in moving back towards the stumps to collect the throw.
Prince's delay meant the throw did not result in a run out after which Indian players got frustrated. Iyer lost his cool at the pacer, while Axar also was unhappy with the missed opportunity. Their angry reactions were caught on the broadcasting cameras and the video is being widely shared on social media.
Axar Patel is seen in the video yelling at Prince for standing in the middle of the pitch and not coming to cover the stumps. Shreyas Iyer is also seen shouting at the bowler for his absence of mind.
