Suryakumar Yadav Sacrifices His Wicket For Rohit Sharma, Fans Hail MI Batsman’s Selfless Act. Watch

Must Read

Rohit Sharma scored a fluent half-century that helped Mumbai Indians beat Delhi Capitals by five wickets in the Indian Premier League final on Tuesday to clinch their fifth title. Chasing 157 runs for the title, Mumbai had the game in their grasp with Rohit and Suryakumar Yadav in the middle. In the 11th over, a mix-up between the duo resulted in the latter losing his wicket. Rohit came charging down for a single but Suryakumar wasn’t interested and tried to send back his skipper but it was too late. Rather than showing his frustration, Suryakumar selflessly sacrificed his wicket and walked back to the pavilion. He scored 19 runs off 20 deliveries. 

After the match, Suryakumar was asked about the mix-up in the middle with Rohit Sharma and the MI batsman said that he doesn’t mind sacrificing his wicket for his captain.

“Rohit was batting very well at that moment. Most importantly he has been anchoring the innings a lot since first game. I don’t mind sacrificing my wicket for him at all,” Suryakumar said in the post-match interview.

Mumbai Indians cruised to a five-wicket win in Dubai to grab their record-extending fifth IPL title.
