Suryakumar’s scores of 32, 82 not out and 57 not out in the ongoing series have highlighted a return to fluency and confidence at the crease. India continue to dominate the upper end of the batting charts, with Abhishek Sharma retaining the top spot and Tilak Varma placed third, underlining the team’s impressive batting depth as the World Cup draws closer.
India’s strength in depth was further reflected in the latest rankings update, with Ishan Kishan making a notable return to the list at 64th. The left-hander’s explosive 76 off just 32 balls in Raipur marked a strong comeback to T20I cricket. Shivam Dube also enjoyed a rise, climbing nine places to 58th, while Rinku Singh surged 13 spots to 68th, reinforcing India’s status as the top-ranked T20I side.
