With 3 Consecutive Golden Ducks Surya Kumar Yadav creates the most Embarrassing record in ODI Cricket

It was a series to forget for Surya kumar Yadav as the talented right-hander failed to open his account in all three matches against Australia. The 32-year-old, who was given the role of a finisher in the third ODI match in Chennai, was dismissed by Ashton Agar on the very first ball and in the process, Yadav became the first batter in the history of the game to be dismissed for first-ball ducks in every match of an ODI series. 

 He was dismissed by Mitchell Starc in the previous two encounters. Overall, he became the sixth Indian batsman after Sachin Tendulkar, Zaheer Khan, Ishant Sharma, Jasprit Bumrah and Anil Kumble to score three consecutive ducks in ODI cricket. The world record for most successive ducks in ODI cricket is 4.

It wasn’t that good a ball, he should have gone forward: Rohit Sharma reacts to Surya kumar Yadav’s 3rd golden duck in a row

Just as Ashton Agar cleaned up Surya kumar Yadav first ball in the third India-Australia ODI on Wednesday, the broadcast cameras panned to captain Rohit Sharma in the dugout, who was left as bamboozled as anyone else watching.

When asked about Surya’s form in the post-match conference, Rohit would say, “He only played three balls in three (games) this series. I don’t know how much to look into it. He got three good balls, to be honest.”
