"Fearless" is how middle-order batter Suryakumar Yadav described his hurricane knock in the first T20I against Australia in Visakhapatnam and said he felt "proud" to lead the country to victory on his captaincy debut.
Suryakumar smashed a 42-ball 80 and shared a 112-run partnership with Ishan Kishan as India chased down Australia's massive 208 for 3 off the penultimate ball of the match on Thursday for a two-wicket victory.
Surya had contributed just 18 runs in the World Cup final against Australia on Sunday as India lost by six wickets on the big stage.
