Suryakumar scored the most runs in India’s three-match T20I series against Sri Lanka earlier this month. In three games, the right-handed hitter scored 170 runs, including a century and a fifty.

With his undefeated 112-run knock in the series finale, he wowed the crowd. However, he did not make the starting XI for the Men in Blue in the first two games of the ongoing 50-over series.
