'Maarne ka mood hi nahi ho raha', Suryakumar Yadav's interesting comment caught on stump mic

Suryakumar Yadav expressed an interesting remarks while batting in the middle at the Gabba for India's first official warm-up game for the T20 World Cup 2022 against Australia on Monday (October 17). 

Taking on the Aussies, the batter said, "maarne ka mood hi nahi ho raha yaar (Just not in the mood to hit big today, man)" upon reaching his half-century in Brisbane, batting in the final over. 

Notably, just after his interesting comments, he got dismissed next ball playing a miscued flick towards the square leg region, a catch off which ballooned straight into the hands of seamer Kane Richardson. 

It isn't known why Suryakumar Yadav came with those remarks but they made for an amusing scene since the in-form batter had already done a lot of the hitting in the middle through his knock of 50 off 33 balls. 

Suryakumar Yadav' amusing remarks caught on mic 

A clip of the brief but amusing incident is doing the rounds on Twitter, where Suryakumar Yadav can be heard via the stump mic, saying "I am not in the mood to hit big today, man" to his batting partner Axar Patel, who had joined him at No.7. 

Since the attacking right-hander was batting so well in the middle for his 32-ball half-century, one wondered why does he say so? Interestingly, that remark followed his departure from the crease after a miscued attempted flick shot. 

Suryakumar ended up top-edging the slower ball from Richardson back into the pacer's hands, leading even the Aussie quick surprised about what had just taken place as the Indian batter missed out on an easy opportunity to fetch another big hit. 

That was obviously not deliberate, and had no connection with the preceding delivery which included the moody remark. But the brief set of two balls made for interesting scenes, especially as it wasn't clear why Suryakumar Yadav felt he isn't in the "mood" for big-hitting, when he had a strike-rate of 151.52 at his end. 

Either way, India would hope their middle-order batter continues his rich vein of form and keeps their T20 World Cup chances alive till deep into the tournament proper.
