Suryakumar Yadav forgets team change at toss vs Oman, jokes he’s become like Rohit Sharma in a hilarious Asia Cup moment.

India made two changes, and while Surya remembered Harshit Rana, he went completely blank on the second. With Ravi Shastri waiting for an answer, Surya laughed and said, “Oh my God, I’ve become like Rohit Sharma,” leaving everyone around in splits.

Surya later explained that India chose to bat first as their middle and lower order had not faced enough balls in the tournament. “We have not batted first in this competition, and we want to know our depth. Having game time is important going into the Super 4s,” he said.

The funny mix-up reminded fans of Rohit Sharma’s famous forgetfulness. From misplacing passports and gadgets to forgetting team changes and even his own toss decision once, Rohit’s off-field memory lapses have long been a source of amusement for teammates and fans alike.

India’s match against Oman was their final league fixture before the Super Four stage, where they are set to face Pakistan once again in a high-voltage encounter.
