"Would Be Playing Those Shots In Nets": Nehra Floors Jaiswal With Epic Virat-Rohit Remark

India's opening batter Yashasvi Jaiswal played some beautiful strokes as the team took on Sri Lanka in the first T20I of the 3-match series on Saturday. Jaiswal scored 21-ball 40 while opening the innings with vice-captain Shubman Gill who also looked in sublime touch. However, it was Jaiswal who also displayed his ability to hit some unorthodox shots, tailor-made for T20 cricket, probably trying to match his skipper Suryakumar Yadav. Speaking about those shots, former India pacer Ashish Nehra left Jaiswal in splits as he suggested that the left-hander would only be playing such shots in the nets if Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma were still playing T20 international cricket.

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.

Riyan Parag Reveals Gautam Gambhir Factor Behind 3 Wickets In 1st T20I

India all-rounder Riyan Parag emerged as an unlikely chief destructor with the ball as the national team took on Sri Lanka in the first T20I on Saturday. Pathum Nissanka and Kusal Mendis gave the Lankans a fine start, scoring 84 runs for the first wicket before their chase started to fall apart. Riyan Parag, in just 1.2 overs, bagged the important wickets of Kmindu Mendis, Maheesh Theekshana and Dilshan Madushanka as India bowled out the hosts for just 170 runs, winning the match by 43 runs. After the game, Parag revealed how head coach Gautam Gambhir prepared him for different situations in the match.

Virat Kohli's World Record Matched In Half The Time, Suryakumar Yadav Does The Unthinkable

India's newly-appointed T20I skipper Suryakumar Yadav began his journey as the full-time skipper of the team in emphatic fashion, winning the first match of the series quite convincingly. Suryakuma's Team India beat the Lankans by 43 runs after putting a whopping total of 213/7 on the board, with the skipper leading from the front. Surya scored 58 runs off 26 balls during his stay in the middle, and was pivotal in dictating the tempo of the game. Even as a skipper Surya gave a fine example of his strategic mindset, helping the team begin the tour on a winning note. As a result, Surya was named the Player of the Match, with the honour enabling him to match Virat Kohli's world record.

'Hardik Pandya Has Got Much More Talent Than Ben Stokes': Ex-New Zealand Star

Hardik Pandya's skill sets are equivalent to premier England all-rounder and captain Ben Stokes but the mercurial Indian needs to show more consistency, reckoned former New Zealand cricketer Scott Styris. Recently, Suryakumar Yadav was preferred over Pandya as India's captain in T20Is for the upcoming series against Sri Lanka, as chief selector Ajit Agarkar "wanted someone who was likely to be available more often." "This champion all-rounder (Pandya) has got as many skills as anyone. He's probably in a similar ability-zone as someone like Ben Stokes. He's got much more talent than that (his recent performances)," Styris told PTI Videos in an interview.

"Mastered That Skill": Ex-India Coach On Suryakumar Yadav Becoming T20I Captain

The decision to elevate star batter Suryakumar Yadav into the leadership role has garnered much attention, especially with Hardik Pandya being snubbed of the same job. The decision to snub Hardik for the leadership role came as a shock to many. Over the past few years, Hardik has led Team India in T20Is in the absence of captain Rohit Sharma, and was also his deputy during the successful T20 World Cup campaign last month. While addressing the debate at a press conference, India chief selector Ajit Agarkar emphasised that the decision to name Suryakumar the captain was taken considering the fitness aspect in mind.

"We Were Fortunate...": Suryakumar Yadav's Honest Admission On Win Over Sri Lanka

Having made a winning start to his journey as India's new T20I captain on Saturday, Suryakumar Yadav said he always thought that the game against Sri Lanka was under control despite a good start by the hosts as there was hardly any dew to make life difficult for his bowlers. Chasing a target of 214, Sri Lanka were cruising along at 149 for 2 before losing eight wickets for 21 runs to lose the opening T20I by 43 runs. "We were fortunate that there was no dew. The way we played in the World Cup, that reminded us that the game was still too far," Suryakumar, who also won the 'Player of the Match' award for his 26-ball-58, said. He praised the Sri Lankans for a good batting effort but said he always knew that the track would slow down as the game progressed.
