Amid all the reactions, India head coach Ravi Shastri has posted a message for Yadav, asking the batsman to stay positive. “Surya namaskar Folded hands. Stay strong and patient @surya_14kumar, #MIvsRCBm,” Shastri tweeted.

Shastri's tweet came soon after Yadav played a fine thump to take Mumbai Indians to a five-wicket win against Royal Challengers Bangalore. Yadav featured with the bat, scoring an unbeaten 79 taking MI home in pursue of 165. This was Yadav's third fifty of the period with which he took his count to 362 runs from 12 matches.

“I was looking to finish the game. I was looking to learn what my game is. Happy to have finished it. A lot of meditation has helped. One over the cover to Chahal and the back foot punch off Steyn were my favorites,” Yadav, who was named Player of the Match, said.

“I have worked on my game during the lockdown. I used to love playing on the on-side before. Pleased to have finished the game. The team management and Rohit told me before the start of the tournament that you have played enough to take the game deep. I am glad I have been able to do it.”
