He was very angry: Suryakumar Yadav on Axar's reaction
Suryakumar Yadav was quoted as saying by The Indian Express: “He was very angry, and he should have been. He’s an experienced player; he leads a franchise. He should be angry. I apologized. I told him I made a mistake and I’m sorry, but it was a call taken for the team. It was a hard conversation. He took it in his stride, and we talked it through the next day.”
Interestingly, the painful defeat against South Africa turned out to be a wake-up moment for India. The team changed its mindset and started treating every match like a knockout game. As a result, they bounced back strongly by winning the remaining Super 8 games.
India vs South Africa was the eye-opener: Suryakumar Yadav
Suryakumar Yadav signed off by saying, “India vs South Africa was the eye-opener. I never had any doubt in this team, but it tightened our screws. After that, there was no option of coming back. For us, Zimbabwe was a pre-quarter-final. The West Indies was the quarter-final. Then the semis and the final. We had to play every game like a knockout.”
Notably, Axar Patel finished the ICC T20 World Cup 2026 with 11 wickets in 8 matches at an economy rate of 8.20. However, he could manage only 21 runs in the tournament.
