After Surya became the captain, an old video has gone viral on social media
Surya Kumar Yadav has been appointed the captain of the Indian team for the T20 series against Sri Lanka. Apart from this, Rohit Sharma will lead the Indian team in the ODI series. Team India has been announced on Thursday, July 18 for the Sri Lanka tour, in which many young faces have been included.
Gautam Gambhir will also take over as the head coach from the Sri Lanka tour. Gambhir was made the head coach after Rahul Dravid’s tenure and now once again the pair of Suryakumar Yadav and Gautam Gambhir will be seen. At one time both of them used to play together in Kolkata Knight Riders in IPL.
After Surya became the captain, an old video of him has gone viral on social media, in which Gautam Gambhir and Suryakumar Yadav are seen together in KKR jersey. This 50-second video is part of the promo video of the show ‘Night Club’.
In this video, Suryakumar Yadav is trying to recreate the iconic scene ‘Ek Chutki Sindoor’ from Bollywood movie Om Shanti Om. In the video, the cricketer can be heard saying, “Ek Chutki Sindoor Ki Keemat Tum Kya Jaano Manish Babu.” After this, Suryakumar can be seen blushing and hiding his face.
