Suryakumar Yadav’s first reaction after being out of Team India came out, posted story on Instagram

Suryakumar Yadav’s first reaction after being dropped from the T20 team has come to light. The Indian batsman has written something about the new squad in his Instagram story.

Suryakumar Yadav reaction on getting dropped: When the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) announced Team India for Ireland, England and Asian Games 2026, the most discussion was about Suryakumar Yadav. The captain who won the T20 World Cup 2026 was not only removed from the captaincy but was also dropped from the team. This decision surprised the cricket world, because under Surya’s captaincy, India had achieved great success in recent years.

BCCI has appointed Shreyas Iyer as the new T20 captain, while Suryakumar Yadav did not even get a place in the squad. After this big decision, fans were waiting for Surya’s reaction. Now the Indian batsman has given his first reaction through social media, which is becoming increasingly viral.

First reaction given in Instagram story

After being dropped from Team India, Suryakumar Yadav shared a story on his Instagram account. While posting the picture of the new Indian squad, he wrote a very short but special message. Surya wrote in his story, “Best wishes to this talented group for the challenges ahead.” Along with this he also added an emoji of the Indian tricolor. Fans are seeing this message as positive thinking and their support towards the team.

Suryakumar Yadav’s record as captain was excellent

Suryakumar Yadav took over the regular T20 captaincy of the Indian team after the T20 World Cup 2024. Under his leadership, Team India did not face defeat in any bilateral T20 series. Apart from this, India also won the title of Asia Cup and T20 World Cup 2026. Surya’s record as captain was excellent, but his continuously declining performance in batting had raised questions about his place.

Bad form became the biggest reason

For some time now, Suryakumar Yadav’s bat was not performing as expected. After the T20 World Cup, there was a lack of consistency in his batting and he failed to make a big impact in IPL 2026 too. The selectors decided to keep him out of the team keeping in mind his future plans and current form. Chief selector Ajit Agarkar has also clarified that this decision was not easy, but was considered necessary considering the future of the team.

Shreyas Iyer will face a big challenge

Shreyas Iyer will now take charge of the Indian T20 team in place of Suryakumar Yadav. However, this responsibility is not going to be easy for them. Iyer has a lot of captaincy experience in the IPL, but he will be leading the team for the first time at the international level. The Ireland tour will mark the beginning of his captaincy, while the five-match T20 series against England is being considered the biggest test of his leadership.
