'Street-smart' Suryakumar Backed To Rise Up To India T20I Captaincy Challenge

By IANS News July 26, 2024 • 13:04 PM View: 469

Sri Lanka T20I: Nearly 14 years of hard work and dedication in the IPL and domestic cricket circuit finally paid off for Suryakumar Yadav, when he earned his India T20I debut in March 2021 against England.

Suryakumar wasted no time in making a name for himself in the T20I team, impressing the cricketing world with his thrilling 360-degree batting style and composed temperament.

When Suryakumar was announced as the captain for the T20I series against Sri Lanka, almost three years after joining the Indian team, it felt like the perfect timing for him to step into the leadership position.
