Mumbai Indians (MI) are leaving no stone unturned in their preparations for their high-voltage IPL 2025 clash against Chennai Super Kings (CSK). During a recent practice session, an unexpected moment stole the spotlight when MI batter Tilak Varma dismissed star player Suryakumar Yadav.

Tilak, bowling off-spin, delivered a tricky ball that Suryakumar attempted to sweep. However, the ball took an edge off his bat and was caught by a fielder. Following the dismissal, Tilak playfully hugged Surya and gestured toward the pavilion, adding a touch of humor to the moment.

MI’s social media team quickly captured the fun exchange and posted it as a reel. Suryakumar, known for his witty responses, reshared the clip on his Instagram story with the caption, “Ab ghodo ki race mein gadhe bhi dodenge,” which translates to “Now even donkeys will run in the race of horses.” His lighthearted comment has since gone viral, leaving fans amused and eagerly anticipating MI’s showdown against CSK.
