India emerged triumphant in the Asia Cup, securing their 8th title in a thrilling fashion on Sunday. The team displayed exceptional performance, with Mohammed Siraj standing out for his outstanding bowling spell. His remarkable figures of 6 for 21 in seven overs led to Sri Lanka being bundled out for a mere 50 runs in 15.2 overs. With a small target set, the Indian team confidently chased it down in just 6.1 overs, without losing a single wicket.
However, it was an amusing incident involving Indian skipper Rohit Sharma that drew attention after the match. A video circulating on social media showed Sharma forgetting his passport as the team was leaving the hotel in Colombo. The support staff had to retrieve it, causing a delay in their departure for the airport. This incident reminded fans of a statement made Virat Kohli on a talk show, where he mentioned Sharma’s tendency to forget items like iPads and even his passport on previous occasions.
To avoid such situations in the future, the team’s logistics manager has implemented a system of double-checking Sharma’s belongings before allowing the team bus to depart. Despite this minor hiccup, India’s victory in the Asia Cup remains a significant milestone. The incident with Sharma’s forgotten passport adds a lighthearted and relatable touch to their journey towards success.
