The Indian cricket team will embark on a new quest while on tour in South Africa. The Indian cricket team will play two Tests, three ODIs, and three T20Is. For the first time, the three forms will be led by three different Indian cricket team players. Suryakumar Yadav, who is in charge of the T20I squad, will need to lead the Indian team to victory in the first T20I against South Africa on Sunday. Indian bowler Mukesh Kumar is an important member of the Indian T20I team.
He was also chosen for the ODI series. He played admirably in India’s recent home T20I series win over Australia. Despite having played the first two games, Mukesh Kumar missed the third due to a unique circumstance.
Indian bowler Mukesh Kumar’s funny reply:
Suryakumar Yadav, India’s captain, revealed the reason for Mukesh Kumar’s absence during the third T20I toss. The match was played in Twenty20 format against Australia. Suryakumar Yadav later stated, “Avesh replaces Mukesh, who is playing his biggest game, he’s getting married, and we wish him all the best.”
A video of Mukesh Kumar’s amusing remark after his wedding has now gone viral. He said, “I’m feeling good. Unke saath doosri paadi start kia hu, jinke saath doosri paadi start kia hu. Aur match bhi agey accha khelunga main inke saath (I started my second innings with the same person I started with. I will continue to play well with her in the future).”
A three-match T20I series is set for December 10-14, followed by a three-match ODI series on December 17-21. The tour’s final leg will be a two-match Test series beginning on December 26 as part of the World Test Championship.
India is still struggling in South Africa, particularly in the Test format, where winning a series has proven difficult.
Previous Indian teams, despite showing promise, have failed to make history in South Africa. In the last thirty years, India has only won four Test matches in South Africa.
So, this was all about the ace Indian bowler Mukesh Kumar. Also read, WPL auction 2024: Who is Jinisha Sharma with UP Warriorz!
