In a heartwarming display of humility that has gone viral across social media, Indian T20 captain Suryakumar Yadav was seen touching feet of team staff member Raghu following India's seven-wicket win over New Zealand in IND vs NZ 2nd T20I in Raipur on Friday.

The gesture came after Suryakumar finally silenced his critics with a vintage performance. Chasing a daunting target of 209, the world's top-ranked T20 batter looked like his old self, dismantling the Kiwi bowling attack with his signature 360-degree strokeplay.

After a string of low scores, "SKY" returned to form at the perfect moment, anchoring the chase alongside Ishan Kishan. His blistering half-century was punctuated by audacious scoops and wristy flicks, proving that the captaincy hasn't dulled his flair.

As the winning runs were hit, ensuring a 2-0 series lead for India, a jubilant Surya headed straight to the dugout, where he sought the blessings of "Raghu", team India's veteran throwdown specialist.
