IND vs ENG: “It's A Pleasure To Watch Him Bat”: Robin Uthappa In Awe Of Suryakumar Yadav’s Performance

The final Super 12 stage match of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2022 took place on Sunday, November 6, at the Melbourne Cricket Ground, and featured the No. 1 batter in the ICC Men’s T20I Batting Rankings Suryakumar Yadav versus the Craig Ervine-captained Zimbabwe National Cricket Team.

Suryakumar has been one of the top performers for India in the ongoing T20 World Cup Down Under. He has consistently scored runs in the marquee event at a brisk rate while batting at No. 4.

Since making his T20I debut last year, Suryakumar Yadav has been in excellent form, and he is now the first Indian to ever hit 1000 runs in a single calendar year. He is just the second player to score 1000 T20I runs in a year, with Mohammad Rizwan being the first.

The middle-order batsman has scored 225 runs in 5 innings during the current ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2022 at an average of 75 and a strike rate of 193.97, including 3 fifties.

“Suryakumar Yadav is unconcerned with what is going on around him; all he cares about is where he is headed and how he will perform and score runs for himself and the team.

“It’s fantastic to see how he’s constantly able to get runs, and when we look at how he scored, we can see that he’s capable of surviving pressure even when wickets fall back to back,” Robin Uthappa said.

“He simply went deep into the game and was still getting boundaries here and there. He has a strong urge to score boundaries, which makes him interesting to watch,” Robin Uthappa remarked on ESPNcricinfo.

At the Adelaide Oval on Thursday, Team India will play Jos Buttler’s England in the second semifinal of the ICC men’s T20 World Cup 2022. (November 10).
