The ongoing India versus Pakistan contest is an absolutely brilliant and thrilling fest.
Thatâs not just down to the fact that this one is a test of nerves but the excitement level doubles up given the sheer weight of rivalry involved in such a contest.
The India versus Pakistan contest, therefore, is more than just a normal cricketing contest. So much more. And laying perfect meaning and tone to this line of thought was Indiaâs captain- the man known by the fond nickname Sky- SURYAKUMAR YADAV.
And how?
By welcoming none other than Usman Tariq to the middle by a boundary.

Imagine youâre playing a team like India and that too, in the daddy of ICC T20 battles- the T20 World Cup and the first thing that happens to you, a primer spinner, is that youâre struck for a four.
And that too, by the man whoâs at the helm of leadership affairs of your biggest cricketing rival.
Make no mistake this is no troll post but nonetheless, capturing of a rather interesting moment.
For now, Usman has made a lot of news for his pause-filled spin bowling action. And while thatâs on one hand, the other man in contention in this case, is someone whoâs made hitting boundaries and sixes for fun.
Thatâs more like Suryakumar Yadavâs middle name or an inveterate habit of sorts.
Interestingly, Surya was also seen practicing the noted Pakistani spinnerâs bowling action in the nets. And this was prior to the star of tonightâs Sunday cricketing fiesta!
