Suryakumar Yadav has been a sensation this year and has established himself as a T20 international phenomenon. The right-handed batsman had been exceptional in the shortest format and overtook Pakistan’s Mohammad Rizwan as the No.1 batsman.

Suryakumar became one of the most important players in the Indian team, breaking various records as well. He established himself as the team’s No. 4 and continued his excellent form even after the T20 World Cup 2022. The right-handed batter became the third Indian to score multiple hundreds in T20 cricket.

I Don’t Like To Think Too Much When I Am Playing – Suryakumar Yadav

Suryakumar said that he does not like to think too much while batting in any format. The right-handed batsman said that he has always loved batting, be it T20s, ODIs or the Ranji Trophy. He said he wants to be a “game changer” for his team whenever he comes out to bat.

“I don’t like to think too much when I am playing any format. Because I enjoy this game, whenever I go into bat, I put up a show. What I always dream and visualise is that whenever I go in, I want to be the game-changer.”

“I have always loved batting whether it is T20Is, ODIs or Ranji Trophy. If I can do what my team wants me to do in 40-50 balls, why should I bat 100 balls.”

Surya recently returned to red-ball cricket after a gap of almost three years. He played for Mumbai in the second group match against Hyderabad and showed his red-ball ability once again, scoring a quickfire 90 runs off 80 balls.
