Suryakumar Yadav: "My Most Important Catch Was Marrying My Wife"

Indian cricket star Suryakumar Yadav, fondly known as SKY, has taken to social media to celebrate the eighth anniversary of his marriage to Devisha Shetty. In a heartwarming post, SKY revealed that the "most important catch" of his life was not the one he took to dismiss David Miller in the 2024 T20 World Cup final, but rather marrying his wife.

"Yesterday marked 8 days since THAT catch but my most important catch was actually 8 years ago!" captioned SKY on Instagram. "8 years ago, infinite years to go," he added.

The post, which featured pictures of the couple cutting a giant cake, garnered over 700,000 likes in just six hours. Fans flooded the comments section with well wishes and admiration for the couple.

SKY and Devisha first met in 2010 and tied the knot on July 7, 2016. Their marriage has been a source of inspiration for many, and SKY's recent post is a testament to the love and bond they share.

SKY's role in India's T20 World Cup 2024 win cannot be overstated. As the world's no. 1 batter for nearly two years, he was a key player in India's triumph in the Caribbean and USA.

After scoring two half-centuries earlier in the tournament, SKY produced the catch of a lifetime in the final. With South Africa needing 16 off the final over, SKY took an astonishing catch at long-off to dismiss the dangerous David Miller. SKY first had to keep the ball in play, and then came back from outside the boundary rope to claim a stunning catch.

SKY's catch, along with a magnificent death bowling effort by Jasprit Bumrah, Arshdeep Singh, and Hardik Pandya, led to India winning the final by seven runs, thereby clinching a second T20 World Cup title.

SKY is currently rested for India's five-match T20I series in Zimbabwe. However, his impact on the team remains undeniable, and he will undoubtedly be a key player for India in the upcoming ICC events.
