After receiving the Man of the Match award, Yashasvi apologised to Ruturaj. He said sorry for a mix-up with Ruturaj in the first T20I in Visakhapatnam, which led to the right-hander’s run-out.
“It was my mistake. I went to him and said sorry. (Marcus) Stoinis was between me, I was sure but then not sure. I made the wrong call. It was my mistake in the last game. I accepted my mistake. Rutu bhai is so humble and very caring,” Yashasvi said during the post-match presentation.
“I accepted that it was a mistake and it happens. Rutu bhai was humble and said in the gym that next time we are running, we will take secure singles,” he said.
