Suryakumar Yadav special show vs SL
SKY’s captaincy debut (as a permanent T20I leader) was marked by a scintillating batting performance, underscoring the notion that the additional responsibility has not curtailed his aggressive style. His ability to adapt to the changing field placements and construct an innings with calculated aggression was evident as he raced to a fifty in just 22 deliveries.
Captain or not, SKY to play the same
His 58-run knock off 22 showed how things are going to be in future for India in T20Is. Suryakumar will continue to go hammer and tongs against bowlers. The World No. 2 ranked batter in T20Is is undoubtedly, the X-factor for India. He hammered eight fours and two sixes and struck at a huge strike rate of 223.08.
