The Indian Premier League is hotting up as it nears the climax of the league stage of the 2025 season.
However, it’s not all intense action on the field as Gujarat Titans prepare for their visit to the Mumbai Indians at the Wankhede Stadium. Ahead of Tuesday’s high-octane clash, players from both sides eked out some time from their heavy training sessions to engage in banter on the eve of the match.
MI vs GT: Bonhomie
The banter was between GT’s bowlers, Mohammed Siraj and Rashid Khan, and MI’s batsman Suryakumar Yadav.
SKY, as the MI batter is fondly known as, was discussing his favourite cricketing shots with Khan, and the Afghanistan leg spinner reminded the former of his ‘Supla Shot’.
SKY responded to that by saying, “Accha. Aap snake shot maro toh woh chalta hai. Aap karo toh dance, hum kare toh… (If you hit the snake shot it works. When you do it, it is dance, if I do it then…).”
As the duo were chattering along, GT’s pacer Mohammed Siraj joined in on the fun. Mumbai Indians captured the interaction; watch here:
