Suryakumar Yadav was ecstatic as India crushed Bangladesh by 133 runs in the third and final T20 International on Saturday at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad, completing a 3-0 series sweep. Suryakumar Yadav praised his squad for upholding the notion that “everyone has to chip in” and that “no one is bigger than the team.”
The Importance of Selflessness in Team Dynamics
Suryakumar articulated that being a “selfless cricketer” is at the heart of Team India’s mantra. He stated, “We want to enjoy each other’s success,” highlighting that individual achievements should be viewed as collective victories. This mindset encourages players to support one another, fostering a positive atmosphere that can lead to better performances during matches.
As a team, we accomplished a great deal. Cricket players who are selfless are what I want. Enjoying each other’s accomplishment is what we seek. During the post-match presentation, Suryakumar Yadav stated, “We are enjoying ourselves. The team is bigger than any individual. We must be extremely adaptable. Everyone must contribute. It has been admirable how they have demonstrated it in this series. Simply keep up the positive behaviors and remain the same,” he continued.
Maintaining Focus on Processes
In discussing his captaincy approach, Yadav emphasized the importance of following processes and keeping things simple. “I prefer to handle situations normally and encourage my teammates to do the same,” he noted. This focus on maintaining a calm demeanor helps the team navigate pressure situations effectively.
After skipper SKY’s brilliant 75 and Sanju Samson’s incredible maiden T20I century of 111 off 47 balls propelled India to a record-breaking 297/6, their highest-ever total in T20Is, Bishnoi and other spinners contributed to limiting Bangladesh to 164/7.

In front of a Dussehra holiday crowd, the 133-run victory margin is also India’s third-largest run victory in men’s Twenty20 international cricket. Parvez Hossain Emon attempted a draw on the first ball of the chase, but the ball slid off the glove to first slip, and Mayank Yadav hit it. Tanzid Hasan attempted a cut but was edged to short third, and Washington Sundar was the next bowler to score.
After a 53-run partnership between Litton Das and Towhid Hridoy, the leg-spinner became the joint-third fastest Indian to take 50 men’s T20I wickets. Das was caught at deep mid-wicket off Bishnoi for 42 off 25 balls. When Mahmudullah holed out to long-on off Mayank at eight, his last Twenty20 International innings came to an end.
Bishnoi claimed his third wicket when Rishad Hossain made a straightforward catch to long-off, while Mahedi Hasan attempted the big hit but holed out in the deep off Nitish Kumar Reddy.
In the midst of all of excitement, Hridoy completed his fifty by hitting Bishnoi for six, and he was undefeated at sixty-three, as the visiting side was thoroughly destroyed by a dominant Indian squad.
