India batter Suryakumar Yadav is on the cusp of breaking veteran opener Shikhar Dhawan's huge T20I record. With India set to take on South Africa in a three-match T20I series, starting later on Wednesday, Suryakumar could go past Dhawan as the batter with most T20I runs for Team India in a calendar year. Suryakumar (692) needs just eight runs to go past Dhawan, who had amassed 689 runs in 2018 in the shortest format. The 32-year-old could also go past the likes of Netherland's Max O'Dowd (702), Ireland's Kevin O'Brien (729) and Paul Stirling (748) in the list led by Pakistan batters Mohammad Rizwan (1,326) and Babar Azam (939).
