  • Suryakumar Yadav commented on Virat Kohli’s tweet, Solzing was done during IPL

    Virat Kohli used a negative strategy against Suryakumar Yadav in a high-voltage match between RCB and Mumbai Indians in IPL 2020. Virat would often come close to Suryakumar and start staring at him. But Suryakumar did not lose his cool and he continued to ignore the RCB captain.

    As soon as he won the match, Suryakumar looked at Kohli and asked him, “Is everything okay?” The fans of Surya liked it a lot, the reason is that they responded to the negative attack in a positive way.

    Suryakumar was not included in any of the formats despite his impressive performance when the team of ODIs, Tests and T20s were selected on the tour of Australia. However, Team India coach Ravi Shastri, while praising this opener of Mumbai Indians, advised to be patient.

    On social media, cricket fans blamed Virat Kohli for not being selected by Suryakumar. Akash Chopra also praised Suryakumar before the selection and said that he will definitely be seen in Team India’s jersey in future.

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

    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. 

  • Shikhar will have a chance to get orange cap

    Shikhar Dhawan, the left-handed opener of the Delhi Capitals, will have a chance to get the Orange Cap for all-round runs in IPL-13. Shikhar had scored a brilliant 78 against Sunrisers Hyderabad on Sunday in Qualifier 2 and completed 600 runs in the tournament. Shikhar now has 603 runs in 16 matches and he is second behind Lokesh Rahul of Kings XI Punjab in terms of scoring the most runs.

    Punjab captain Rahul scored 670 runs in 14 matches. If playing another big innings against Mumbai Indians in the summit finals gives the team the title for the first time, then they can also get the Orange Cap. There is a 67-run gap between him and Rahul. In the final, three players from Mumbai, Ishaan Kishan, Kinton De Kock and Surya Kumar Yadav will have a chance to complete 500 runs in the tournament. Kishan has 483, D Cock has 483 and Suryakumar has 461 runs.
