Rain Stops the Final Match
The fifth T20 match, scheduled to be played at the Gabba in Brisbane on Saturday (November 8), began with India batting. However, the weather intervened in the sixth over. Heavy rain prevented the match from resuming, and it was eventually abandoned. India won the series 2-1. In this match, Suryakumar Yadav made one change to the playing XI – Rinku Singh was given a chance in place of Tilak Varma, who was rested.
Birthday Celebration Begins in the Dressing Room
Immediately after winning the series, Team India celebrated Tilak Varma’s birthday in the dressing room. Tilak turned 23 on Saturday. A video showed the entire team celebrating joyfully, with Suryakumar Yadav in high spirits. Tilak also shared the video on his Instagram account, showing his teammates having fun and joking around.
Suryakumar Yadav Steals the Show
Suryakumar Yadav proved to be the real entertainer at the birthday party.

He then burst into laughter, saying, “This will make your hair look even better.” The rest of the team also joined in the laughter.
Arshdeep and Dube Join the Cake Fight
As soon as Surya smeared cake on Tilak’s face, Arshdeep Singh also joined in. He too applied cake on Tilak, but Tilak retaliated. Seeing this, Shivam Dube ran away laughing, even dropping a strawberry from his hand. The dressing room echoed with laughter, and someone jokingly said from behind, “The Punjabis have arrived!”
