As the fourth T20I match against South Africa loomed, Team India decided to unwind with a movie night in Lucknow. On Monday, the entire squad, including captain Suryakumar Yadav and vice-captain Shubman Gill, booked out a private auditorium at the Phoenix Palassio mall multiplex to watch Aditya Dhar's blockbuster film Dhurandhar. The star-studded cast, featuring Ranveer Singh, Akshaye Khanna, and R Madhavan, was the perfect distraction for the players after securing a 2-1 lead in the five-match series. The team, accompanied by bowling coach Morne Morkel, arrived in Lucknow earlier that evening and checked into the Hyatt Regency Hotel. They were seen in casual attire as they enjoyed the 8:10 PM show, which ended at 12:10 am. The team's safety and comfort were top priority, with the entire auditorium booked exclusively for them. The fourth T20I match is scheduled for December 17 at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Cricket Stadium. With the series hanging in the balance, Team India will look to seal the deal with another win, while the South African team is determined to level the series. The stadium management is fully geared up to host the match, with special traffic management plans in place to manage the expected crowd and ensure safe entry and exit for the teams and spectators.
