Batting dynamo Suryakumar Yadav says his "special" century against New Zealand was forged on enjoyment and hard work as he steered India to a 65-run in the second Twenty20 International on Sunday.
Suryakumar Yadav hit a blazing unbeaten 61 as India set up a Twenty20 World Cup semi-final against England by crushing Zimbabwe by 71 runs at a packed Melbourne Cricket Ground on Sunday. India were flying at 87-1 but the loss of three quick wickets slowed them down before Yadav set the proceedings alight, smashing six sixes in his 25-ball blitz to steer them to 186-5, with 79 coming off the last five overs. Zimbabwe lost two wickets for two runs in reply and were never in the hunt, capitulating in the 17th over in front of 82,507 fans. Ravichandran Ashwin took 3-22 for a rampant India.
(Reuters) - Indian batter Suryakumar Yadav said his partnership with Virat Kohli had been forged by mutual respect for each other's style after the pair guided their team to a 56-run win over the Netherlands in the Twenty20 World Cup on Thursday.
India's Suryakumar Yadav will enter the T20 World Cup as the second best batter in the format following an update of the ICC Men's Player Rankings issued on Wednesday. Pakistan opener Mohammad Rizwan (861 rating points) has extended his lead at the top of the T20I batter rankings after yet another consistent showing during the tri-series in New Zealand, while Suryakumar (838) is still second ahead of the blockbuster clash between the two neighbours at the MCG on Sunday. KL Rahul (13), Virat Kohli (15) and skipper Rohit Sharma (16) are all static in the latest update.
One of the finest batters in modern-day cricket at present, Suryakumar Yadav looked in full swing as India took on Australia in the warm-up match ahead of the start of the T20 World Cup 2022. Surya scored a 33-ball fifty in the match before he got out. But now, a video has surfaced on social media where the attacking batter could be heard telling the non-striker Ravichandran Ashwin that he wasn't feeling like hitting the ball anymore. On the very next delivery, Surya departed.
The T20 World Cup is underway in Australia and currently, initial group stage is being played from which four sides will qualify for the Super-12 stage. All eyes are on October 23 when India will take on Pakistan at the Melbourne Cricket Ground. Former India batter Suresh Raina spoke to NDTV in an exclusive interview where he talked about India's chances at the World Cup and how he thinks if India are able to get the better of Pakistan, then they will go on to lift the World Cup.
Surykumar Yadav has become one of the best T20 batters going around in the world and it is no surprise that opposition bowlers talk highly of game. The right-handed batter was on song in India's first official warm-up game against Australia ahead of the T20 World Cup as he registered a half-century. His knock helped India post more than 180 runs on the board and he was finally dismissed by Kane Richardson in the final over of the innings.
The eyes of all cricket fans are focussed on just one direction right now - the T20 World Cup 2022 in Australia. Most of the teams have already reached Down Under as the action begins on Sunday. The Rohit Sharma-led Indian cricket team is one of the heavyweights going into the tournament, however, it had to tackle few injury problems in the buildup to the marquee event. India will be without star allrounder Ravindra Jadeja and pacer Jasprit Bumrah - both of whom were injured. While all other top players are fit, Suresh Raina, member of India's 2011 50-over World Cup-winning team, gave his take on the player who will 'control the game' for the 'Men in Blue'.
