“Everyone’s Heart Was in Their Mouth” – Rohit Sharma Recalls Suryakumar Yadav’s Stunning Catch in 2024 T20 World Cup Final
Rohit Sharma recently said that the Indian players were apprehensive during the 2024 T20 World Cup final after Suryakumar Yadav caught South African batsman David Miller near the boundary line in the final over.
Following a review by the on-field umpires, the third umpire reviewed the replays and determined that the catch was legitimate, so declaring the batter out. In an interview with JioHotstar, Rohit discussed the feelings at the time, saying (via ANI):
“Everyone’s heart was in their mouth. I thought it was a six, I was standing opposite to Surya. It would have taken a lot of effort to take the catch. But the wind pulled the ball into the ground. Umpires were checking, and I asked him (Surya), ‘Tu hi bata’.”

On his thought process before the final against South Africa, Rohit added:
“Before the match, I did not sleep the whole night, I felt the nerves, and could not feel my leg. I was just thinking about the World Cup. When I woke up, I was thinking about the result. I remember walking to the ground, just sipping on coffee, not talking to anyone.”

Suryakumar Yadav’s incredible catch helped India defeat South Africa and win the T20 World Cup trophy for the second time.
