Team India may have found their new Mr. 360 degree and the player has been ratified by none other than the current Mr. 360 degree Suryakumar Yadav. The term was first used for South Africa great AB de Villiers for his ability to play shots all around the park. Later, Suryakumar Yadav was also given the same title by the fans as he displayed his wide array of shots on the cricket field.
From playing in front of the wicket, and behind the wicket to playing on both sides of the wicket, the India star has got it all. AB de Villiers himself said that Suryakumar Yadav can be compared to him for his shot-playing ability.
“Yes, they are [right in comparing Suryakumar with me]. The only thing he will have to concentrate on is his consistency,” de Villiers had told PTI in 2022. “He will have to do this for five to ten years and then he will find himself in the golden books of cricket players.
And it looks like India could have an apt replacement for Suryakumar Yadav in the future. A video of a young boy’s impressive batting has taken social media by storm and has caught the eyes of Suryakumar Yadav as well. The India batter decided to comment on it and praised the youngster for his impressive batting, writing:
“Batting yaar, Mr. 360 ✨”
