India won the T20 World Cup 2024 title. In the final of the tournament played against South Africa, Suryakumar Yadav changed the entire game by taking a brilliant catch. Surya caught South African star batsman David Miller at long off in the last over of the match when Africa needed just 16 runs in 1 over to win. There was a lot of controversy over this catch later. Now the South African star has raised a new controversy by raising his voice on this catch.
South Africa's star spinner Tabrez Shamsi talked about Surya's catch through social media. Shamsi shared a video and wrote, "If he had used the same method to check the catch in the World Cup final, it would probably have been given not out
In the video shared by Tabrez Shamsi, some people are seen playing a local cricket match. After a catch is taken on the boundary line in the match, it is measured in different ways.
As soon as Shamsi's post went viral, people started trolling him, after which the African star clarified that it was just a joke. He clarified, If some people don't understand that this is a joke and no one is crying. Let me explain it to you like a 4-year-old child. This is a joke.
In the final played in Barbados, South Africa needed 16 runs to win in the last over. The responsibility of the last over was given to Hardik Pandya. Left-handed David Miller was present at the crease. Miller swung his bat hard on the first full-toss ball of the over. The ball was going out of the boundary towards long off, then Surya ran and stopped the ball from crossing the boundary. Surya caught the ball and threw it from outside to inside and then ran and caught the catch. After Miller was out, the task became very easy for Hardik and he gave victory to Team India.
