The Indian dressing room shared a light-hearted moment ahead of the final T20I as Suryakumar Yadav once again lost the toss — his seventh out of eight on this tour. As the Australian skipper Mitchell Marsh opted to field first, several Indian players, including Rinku Singh and Washington Sundar, couldn’t help but laugh at their captain’s continued bad luck with the coin.
Even Surya took it sportingly, smiling and shaking his head while walking back after the toss, acknowledging his bizarre run of misfortune. The moment added some humour before what promises to be a tense finale between the two sides.
With early movement expected under the lights, it will be interesting to see how openers Abhishek Sharma and Shubman Gill handle the new ball as India aim for a strong start despite the skipper’s ongoing toss woes.
