Suryakumar Yadav lasted for two balls in the IND vs BAN match in the Super 8 stage of the ICC T20 World Cup 2024. He hit Tanzim Hasan Sakib for a six on the first delivery he faced. However, the number one ranked batter was dismissed on the next delivery, leaving India in big trouble.

Former India player Harbhajan Singh was lauding SKY since he came out to replace Virat Kohli. However, the dismissal of Yadav stunned the legendary spinner.

Bhajji felt that his praise brought bad luck for the Indian batter. “I am sorry Suryakumar Yadav for your dismissal. I think my praise played a part in his dismissal,” he said on Star Sports.

Rishabh Pant’s 36 runs off 24 balls added some respectably to the total. It was Hardik Pandya’s sensational fifty that took the score to 196/5 in 20 overs. Pandya struck 4 fours and 3 sixes. Shivam Dube also played an important knock for the first time in the World Cup. The southpaw accumulated 34 off 24, packed with 3 sixes.

Earlier, Bangladesh won the toss and invited India to bat first, a decision that surprised former players. Rohit Sharma (23) and Virat Kohli (37) showed their class.
