Team India captain Suryakumar Yadav displayed a heartwarming gesture towards Sri Lanka's Dunith Wellalage following the Asia Cup 2025 Super 4 match at the Dubai international Stadium. Wellalage, whose father passed away recently, was seen in a somber expression as Suryakumar was seen him consoling like a big brother following the match.
The Sri Lankan youngster learned of his father's passing after the Group stage clash against Afghanistan at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi as his death occurred due to a heart attack. Wellalage had briefly returned home to be with his family but came back for national duty ahead of the Super 4 stage.
