Zee News
Ahead of the high-voltage T20 World Cup 2026 clash against Pakistan, India skipper responded to Salman Ali Aghas comment while giving a massive hint on Abhishek Sharmas return.
With the cricketing world buzzing ahead of the blockbuster India vs Pakistan Group A match in the T20 World Cup 2026 at the R Premadasa Stadium in Colombo on Sunday, February 15, India captain Suryakumar Yadav delivered a classic dose of his trademark humor and confidence during the pre-match press conference.
The spotlight fell on explosive opener Abhishek Sharma, who has been sidelined recently due to a stomach infection that required hospitalization. The left-hander missed India's previous match against Namibia and his fitness for the high-stakes rivalry game had been a major talking point.
Notably, Abhishek, currently ranked as the world's No. 1 T20I batter, has been in blistering form, amassing 1,297 runs in 38 T20Is at a stunning strike rate of 194.74, including two centuries and eight fifties.ALSO READ: 7 captains to lead Rajasthan Royals in IPL history: Shane Warne, Sanju Samson, Riyan Parag and...; check full list
Suryakumar Yadav's comments came in a cheeky response to statement made earlier by Pakistan’s captain, Salman Ali Agha, who had expressed his desire to see India's "best XI" on the field.
