In a funny exchange on social media, India's T20I captain Suryakumar Yadav and Rinku Singh entertained their fans, reminding of the viral video from the Indian Premier League earlier this year when Rinku was seen requesting Virat Kohli to give him a bat.
The Indian team is currently on the tour of Sri Lanka, which is set to begin on July 27 with the first T20I.
In an Instagram story that has gone viral, Surya posted an image of himself talking to Rinku. Below the image, he wrote: "Theek hai bat le lena".
Taking the banter ahead, Rinku reposted the story and added: "De do bhaiya bat".
Surya pipped Hardik Pandya to get the BCCI's nod for T20I captaincy.
Having led India twice in the shortest format in the past, Surya will captain the side for a three-match T20I series in the island nation.
The T20I leg of the tour will be followed by an ODI series, where Rohit Sharma will continue to captain the squad that will also include Virat Kohli.
The tour is the first assignment for Gautam Gambhir since he took over from Rahul Dravid as India's new chief coach after the T20 World Cup last month.
