Suryakumar Yadav pointed out the remarkable team spirit displayed by Oman, where every milestone was celebrated collectively, reflecting a strong bond and attitude within the squad. “The time you spend together off the field reflects on your performance on the field.

The Indian captain also praised Oman’s readiness for the upcoming T20 World Cup qualifiers, expressing confidence in their potential. “This team is more than ready for the World Cup qualifier. The brand of cricket you have played here is something you must remember and carry forward,” Suryakumar said encouragingly.
