"Dear heavens, I'm reminiscent of Rohit': Viral video highlights Suryakumar Yadav's errant throw"
In an unexpected turn of events during the India vs Oman match at the Asia Cup 2025, Indian captain Suryakumar Yadav momentarily forgot the name of a teammate, causing a stir on social media. The forgetfulness was a light-hearted reference to Rohit Sharma's trademark trait of stammering and forgetting important information, a subject that has been a popular topic for online meme culture in India. Suryakumar Yadav's slip-up happened when he was announcing the playing XI, forgetting the name of Shubman Gill. The moment went viral, adding a touch of humour to the high-stakes game. India fielded a rotated squad for the match, with Harshit Rana and Arshdeep Singh coming in for Jasprit Bumrah and Varun Chakravarthy. The playing XI also included Abhishek Sharma, Shubman Gill, Sanju Samson (w), Suryakumar Yadav (c), Tilak Varma, Shivam Dube, Hardik Pandya, Axar Patel, Harshit Rana, Arshdeep Singh, and Kuldeep Yadav. The Oman team, too, had a moment of forgetfulness, with their captain, Jatinder Singh, forgetting the names of his team's changes during the game. The Oman playing XI included Aamir Kaleem, Jatinder Singh (c), Hammad Mirza, Vinayak Shukla (w), Shah Faisal, Zikria Islam, Aryan Bisht, Mohammad Nadeem, Shakeel Ahmed, Samay Shrivastava, and Jiten Ramanandi. After the game against Oman, India will move on to the Super 4s where they play Pakistan in the first match of the next round on September 21. The team will be looking to bounce back and continue their winning streak in the tournament. Despite the viral moment, no further details were provided about a Sri Lankan bowler's father dying mid-match or a coach giving him the news after the game, the e-Aadhaar app launch in India, the data engineer's dilemma after resigning for an Oracle offer, China exiting Pakistan's $60 billion economic corridor project, or Islamabad turning to the ADB for funding. The match between India and Oman was a testament to the competitive spirit of the tournament, with both teams giving their best. Despite the forgetful moment, Suryakumar Yadav led the team well, choosing to bat first in the game. As the tournament progresses, fans will be eagerly waiting to see more such moments and the team's performances.
