Asia Cup 2025: Suryakumar Yadav Faces Awkward Slip-Up During Toss, India Skipper Has A Priceless Reaction: 'I Have Become Like Rohit'

Suryakumar Yadav has ideally settled in as Rohit Sharma's successor as Team India's leader in the T20I format, and so much so that the current Indian skipper has unintentionally taken up a classic trait of the two-time ICC title-winning captain for the Men in Blue.

The moment might be unintentional and funny, but it shows the camaraderie between the two cricketers. It could also be seen as a nod to the former T20I skipper of India, but with a humorous twist.

The moment happened during the toss ceremony ahead of the Asia Cup clash between India and Oman. The Men in Blue had won the toss, and captain Suryakumar Yadav elected to bat first at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi.

While naming the Playing XI to Ravi Shastri, captain Suryakumar Yadav had a tough time recalling the changes in the squad, as he could not remember the other change.

"We've got Harshit, and the second change… Let me remember. Oh, my God! I am becoming like… I've become like Rohit Sharma," Suryakumar Yadav said, as laughter ensued between him and Ravi Shastri.
