India T20I captain Suryakumar Yadav was involved in an amusing late-night encounter at a Mumbai traffic signal when a content creator recognised him as a cricketer but could not remember his name.

“I forgot his name, man. I’m not really into cricket, so I don’t know who that is, but I know that’s a cricketer for sure. Hey, it is what it is,” he said.

The creator also chose not to approach Suryakumar, saying that the cricketer should be allowed to enjoy his privacy.

“Ah, let it be, let it be. Let the man have his privacy. Poor guy, bro,” he added.

Flower Seller Recognises India Star

The moment took another turn when a roadside flower seller spotted Suryakumar inside the vehicle and recognised him immediately.

Carrying a bouquet, the seller approached the car and repeatedly asked the cricketer to buy a flower for the woman travelling with him.

Suryakumar initially appeared reluctant and tried to politely decline the offer. However, after the seller continued requesting him to accept at least one flower, the batter rolled down the window and took it.

The gesture brought a smile to the seller’s face before the traffic signal turned green and the vehicles moved away.

Internet Praises Creator’s Approach

While the content creator’s inability to identify Suryakumar amused viewers, many users also praised him for not disturbing the cricketer.

Instead of forcing an interaction or filming him from close range, the creator deliberately maintained his distance and acknowledged that Suryakumar deserved some personal space.

The video has since attracted attention for the unusual combination of a major Indian cricketer going unnoticed by one person and being instantly recognised by a roadside flower seller.
