India vs New Zealand, 3rd T20I: Suryakumar Yadav deadbats question on nature of the surface

AHMEDABAD: Known for his batting pyrotechnics, Suryakumar Yadav showed a straight bat when asked about the 'nature' of the pitch on offer for the second T20I against New Zealand at the Ekana Stadium in Lucknow. Indian captain Hardik Pandya had termed the strip in Lucknow as a "shocker of a wicket".

"I feel it doesn't matter what soil you play on. These are the things which aren't in your control. What was in our control in the last match, we did. We had to apply, adapt to whatever we got. We just have to move on," said Suryakumar Yadav at the pre-match press conference ahead of the third and final T20I here.
