[WATCH]- Suryakumar Yadav And Devisha Visit Shirdi’s Sai Baba Temple For Blessings

On Wednesday, January 8, India’s T20I captain Suryakumar Yadav, accompanied by his wife Devisha Shetty, was seen seeking blessings at the Sai Baba Temple in Shirdi. Suryakumar had recently participated in the 2024-25 Vijay Hazare Trophy, where he played five matches for Mumbai.

However, the 34-year-old struggled throughout the tournament, accumulating just 38 runs from four innings, including two ducks. Mumbai also missed out on a quarterfinal spot, finishing third in Group B with 20 points after winning five of their seven matches.

The dynamic batter will make his comeback in the five-match T20I series against England, which begins on January 22 in Kolkata. Before the series, Suryakumar, accompanied by his wife Devisha, visited the Sai Baba Temple in Shirdi to seek blessings.
