India National Cricket Team skipper Suryakumar Yadav is known for being a very calm personality on the field, but he lost his cool at the star all-rounder Shivam Dube following the latter's blunder.
The incident happened during the fourth T20I of the five-match series between the India National Cricket Team and the Australia National Cricket Team at the Gold Coast Stadium (Carrara) in Gold Coast
Suryakumar Yadav hurls a mouthful at Shivam Dube
Shivam Dube is slowly gaining the recognition of being the 'man with the golden arm,' and he has got that knack of picking wickets just like all-rounder Shardul Thakur.
He has made huge improvements in his bowling, and his utilisation as a bowler has significantly increased since Gautam Gambhir took charge of the Indian team.
The Gautam Gambhir-led team management has provided great backing to Shivam Dube and even gave him the opportunity to open the bowling for India in the Asia Cup 2025.
Dube has time and again repaid the faith of the team, and he did that once again in the fourth T20I. He picked up massive wickets of Mitchell Marsh and Tim David, but his small blunder left Suryakumar Yadav angry.
On the last ball of the 12th over, he bowled a wide short ball to Marcus Stoinis that helped him get off the mark with a boundary. This left Suryakumar Yadav fuming as he flung his arms in the air and hurled a few words at Dube.

I think whenever the team needs me that's my preferred (batting) position
Axar Patel won the Player of the Match award in the fourth T20I against Australia for his all-round heroics, and after winning the award, he said that he is happy to bat wherever the team wants him to. He elaborated:
"I got a chance because I went into bat at number 7, so I think I had a chance to get to know the wicket. After I spoke with the batters, they were saying that the wicket is not coming on... There was an unexpected bounce and the wicket was a little bit slower, so I just held my position and hit.
"I think whenever the team needs me that's my preferred (batting) position. If I have an impact for my team, I think that's the best game for me. I don't think that number 6 or 7 is my preferred position. I just go there and think what my team needs now, I'll do that.
"I was thinking that was the batters' strength, so I was bowling according to my plan. If the batters are going to hit me down the line, then I can bowl in the middle-stump. Good length, 5-6m length and then if things are slipping from me, then I'll just bowl an odd full one. So that's my plan in these conditions, I think wicket to wicket is the most important thing."
