At present, Suryakumar Yadav is the T-20 captain of Team India.
Suryakumar Yadav is currently the T-20 captain of Team India. Ever since he became the captain of Team India, it is being speculated that he can also captain the IPL team in the upcoming season. Meanwhile, Suryakumar Yadav himself indicated on Saturday that he would like to lead the IPL franchise in the near future. Last year, the Mumbai franchise replaced Rohit Sharma and made Hardik Pandya the captain.
However, the team’s performance was not good under the captaincy of this all-rounder from Baroda. Suryakumar’s stature has been continuously rising since the last IPL and now that he is captaining the national team, it remains to be seen what Mumbai Indians decides before the IPL. However, many people believe that he will play only for Mumbai Indians in the upcoming season.
Suryakumar Yadav gave a big statement on captaining MI
Ahead of the opening match of the three-match series against Bangladesh, Suryakumar spoke in a light-hearted manner about his ambition to captain the Indian team in the IPL. When asked about the IPL, he said, “You bowled the googly, I am enjoying my new role.” I used to play for Mumbai under the captaincy of Rohit Bhai, so whenever I was asked for my opinion, I used to share it.
He said, “It looks good for India also. Before captaining against Sri Lanka, I had also led the team against Australia and South Africa. I have learned from other captains how to take the team forward. Let’s look ahead, keep moving. You will come to know the rest.”
Surya has scored a lot of runs in the IPL in the last few years and that is why he was successful in making his debut for Team India in the year 2021.
