MI vs RCB

There is no doubt, that Suryakumar Yadav, was the star of the MI vs RCB match on Wednesday. The young batsman not only displayed a batting masterclass but also kept his calm despite Virat Kohli’s sledging.

The RCB had put up an average score of 165 in the first innings. But due to quite a few early wickets, MI seemed to be struggling chasing the score.

But Suryakumar Yadav helped bring a transformation in the game by knocking an unbeaten 79 off 43 balls, including 10 boundaries.

Yadav had previously been excluded from the Indian squad of the Australia tour despite a consistent run. The determined right-handed batsman maintained a brilliant strike rate even with some early wickets. He rightfully took home the ‘Man of the Match’ award.

Suryakumar Yadav became the star of the MI vs RCB match not only because of his terrific knocks but also for keeping calm even as RCB skipper, Virat Kohli, sledged him.

The incident took place in the final ball of the 13th over. Yadav had hit a four to Dale Steyn during the previous delivery, and hit the ball in the covers where Virat Kohli was fielding.

Kohli, fielded the ball and walked over to Yadav. In an attempt to get under Suryakumar’s skin, Kohli stood beside him continuing to stare at him.

Despite that, Suryakumar Yadav, kept his calm and simply walked away. The video of the incident is going viral on social media.
