Indian Cricket Team registered a dominant victory over the Netherlands. The Men in Blue won the match by 56 runs and now are on the top of the table with 2 wins from 2 matches. Suryakumar Yadav silenced all the outside noise by smashing a half-century in only 25 balls on a slow wicket where he struck 7 fours and 1 six

The management would be mightily pleased as the batting unit posted a formidable target of 180 runs. Virat Kohli continued his purple patch as the batter scored an unbeaten 62 runs from 44 balls where he smashed 3 fours and 2 sixes. It looked as if the batter had a clear game plan against the Netherlands bowlers.

Suryakumar Yadav Surpasses Mohammad Rizwan

Suryakumar now has gone past Pakistan’s wicket-keeper batter Mohammad Rizwan as the leading run scorer in T20I Cricket. Rizwan has 822 runs from 19 innings with an average of 51.56. Suryakumar Yadav on the other hand has scored 867 runs in 25 innings with an average of 41.28.

Steep Challenge Ahead for India

India would be well aware of the fact that their next match is quite pivotal to their campaign. South Africa recently thrashed Bangladesh with a resounding victory. It won’t be wrong to say that a victory for India will seal the Semi Final spot for them. India has the wood over South Africa as recently India won the T20I Series by 2-1.

Head Coach Rahul Dravid and Skipper Rohit Sharma will have to bring their ‘A’ game against South Africa on 30th October (Sunday). There are chances that India may strengthen their batting by including Rishabh Pant as playing two spinners at Perth won’t be a feasible option. It would be interesting to see whether the management plays the same team as they were unchanged for the Netherlands match.
