Suryakumar Yadav in disguise interviews Mumbai locals, unaware fan suggests him to 'upgrade' his batting

Suryakumar Yadav showed another version of his 360 degree avatar, this time off the field by disguising himself as cameraman-cum-reporter and interviewing fans at the Marine Drive in Mumbai.

The Indian cricket team is currently in Mumbai to play their seventh match of the World Cup 2023 against Sri Lanka at the iconic Wankhede Stadium. The hosts have won each of their first six matches and are sitting at the top of the points table.

In the video posted by the BCCI, Suryakumar Yadav can be seen wearing a full sleeve shirt, cap and a mask before getting out to interview the fans. The disguised look made it hard even for Ravindra Jadeja to recognise the star batter.

"Wearing a full shirt so that the tattoos are covered. If any one recognises me, I will change the question. We will have fun!" Suryakumar Yadav says at the beginning of the video.

The 33-year-old interviewed a handful of people. One of the fans gave his view on Suryakumar Yadav, saying that he should 'upgrade' himself and bat up the order. However, he respectfully admitted that the right-hander knows better how to work on his game.

"I was feeling as if I would burst out laughing," Suryakumar Yadav said reacting to the suggestions from the fan. He later revealed his real identity to a fan girl who couldn't not believe her eyes. She click pictures with Suryakumar Yadav.

The Mumbai batter has played two World Cup 2023 matches so far. His inclusion in the playing eleven came after the injury to Hardik Pandya. He got run out in his debut World Cup match and scored crucial 49 runs against England at the Ekana Stadium in Lucknow on Sunday.
