In the first ODI against Australia, India took control of their pursuit of 277 runs with a methodical and composed partnership led by their captain, KL Rahul, and Suryakumar Yadav.
The duo treated cricket enthusiasts to a remarkable display of skill as they steadily closed in on the target, but one particular moment stole the spotlight.
In the 47th over, on the fourth delivery, Suryakumar Yadav showcased his trademark shot with a breathtaking flourish. Cameron Green bowled a well-placed length ball, aiming to outsmart the batsman by targeting the off-stump.
However, the 34-year-old displayed his mastery with sheer elegance, executing a jaw-dropping rendition of his signature move—the Supla shot. He sent the ball soaring into the sky, defying gravity’s limits.
