On the eve of the first One Day International against Sri Lanka in Guwahati, Team India skipper Rohit Sharma dropped enough hints to justify why Suryakumar Yadav could not be part of the team’s Playing XI despite his excellent form in the shortest white-ball format.
But despite Sharma’s reasoning, cricket fans were expecting India’s best batter on current form to take the field at the Barsapara cricket stadium on Tuesday. In 45 T20I games and 43 innings, SKY has scored 1,578 runs, averaging 46.41. He has three centuries, 13 half-centuries, and a strike rate of 180.34 in the format. His best individual score is 117.
