India all-rounder Axar Patel says new T20I skipper Suryakumar Yadav is a bowlers' captain who allows them the freedom to execute their plans.
The spin all-rounder also said that the team will look to maximise its batting combinations in the ongoing series against Sri Lanka.
Suryakumar and India made a winning start to the three-match series here on Saturday when they crushed hosts Sri Lanka by 43 runs in a high-scoring opening T20I. "I played in the last Australia series with Surya bhai (as captain).
I know that he is a bowlers' captain. He gives you free hand (in a way) that you decide first," Axar said at the post-match press conference on Saturday. "Whenever you get hit, he comes and says that it was a good ball.
