NEW DELHI: In the wake of a heart-wrenching World Cup final defeat, Suryakumar Yadav is set to don the captain's cap, steering a vibrant group of 'Gen-Next' stars in a five-match T20 International series against a formidable Australian side. The series, kicking off on Thursday, holds the promise of redemption for Yadav and his squad, as they look to bounce back from the scars of recent disappointment.
The quick turnaround time of just 96 hours between the World Cup and the upcoming series leaves little room for introspection for the skipper, affectionately known as 'SKY,' as he prepares to lead in his favoured T20 format.
