NEW DELHI: With the T20I series against Australia in the pocket, skipper Suryakumar Yadav and other players tickled their funny bones while engaging in a hilarious session where they are supposed to give only wrong answers.
Ahead of the fifth and final T20I, Suryakumar along with Arshdeep Singh, Prasidh Krishna and Washington Sundar responded to some lighthearted questions in their own uproarious fashion that can leave anyone in good laughter.
The BCCI took to X, formerly Twitter, to share the video of the fun session.
On being asked their names, Washington replied 'Sherlock', Prasidh named himself 'Arshdeep'. Surya came up with a humorous response and said 'Raju Rastogi' - a character played by actor Sharman Joshi in Bollywood movie 3 idiots, while Arshdeep said 'Jitesh'.
Earlier, Suryakumar praised his side and said that the players have shown character to seal the series win in the fourth T20I.
He also hailed Axar Patel and said that the way he bowled was unbelievable.
"Other than toss, everything (went well). Boys showed character and that was most important for us. We spoke in the meeting before the game to go out and express yourself and be fearless.
I always love putting Axar under pressure and the way he bowled was unbelievable. The plan (during the death overs) was to go for the yorkers and then see what happens," he said.
Suryakumar will continue to lead India in the three-match T20I series in South Africa.
