The high-voltage Pakistan and India match is only hours away as the arch-rivals prepare to face each other in Colombo on Sunday.
Video footage of Indian T20I captain Suryakumar Yadav has gone viral on social media, drawing attention as India explore different ways to counter Pakistan’s spin-heavy attack, led by Abrar Ahmed, Mohammad Nawaz, Shadab Khan, and Usman Tariq.
Usman Tariq, widely regarded as a mystery spinner, has made a significant impact in the 2026 T20 World Cup. He is known for a "stop-start" rhythm that has confounded world-class batters such as Cameron Green and Dewald Brevis.
To prepare for Tariq’s spin, Indian captain Suryakumar Yadav was seen in the nets replicating Tariq’s bowling action, aiming to brace his team for the forthcoming challenge.
