“This is the template we want to play with”- Suryakumar explains India’s approach in the T20 format
India’s newly appointed T20 captain Suryakumar Yadav stressed the importance of maintaining a positive mindset and fearless approach after his team’s consecutive victories against Sri Lanka. Let us tell you that under the captaincy of Suryakumar Yadav, India has taken an unassailable 2-0 lead in the T20 series against Sri Lanka.

Meanwhile, in the press conference after the match, Surya talked about the team’s future strategy in the shortest format and how Team India will approach the format in the upcoming matches. This is the ‘template’ we want to move forward with – Suryakumar Yadav Suryakumar Yadav said after the match, “We talked about what kind of cricket we want to play before the start of the tournament. This is the ‘template’ we want to move forward with.” He further said, “A score of less than 160 would have been good in bad weather. The rain helped us. The way the boys batted was fantastic.” Now the result of the last match of the series will not matter, so when Suryakumar was asked if there is a possibility of some players from the ‘reserve bench’ getting a chance, he said, “We will sit and decide. I am very happy for the boys. They performed very well in difficult circumstances.” India’s googly specialist Ravi Bishnoi was happy that his ‘wrong on’ ball is proving to be effective for him. Ravi Bishnoi, who became the player of the match in the second T20 against Sri Lanka, said after the match, “The pitch was a little different from yesterday. Today in the first innings it helped the spinners. I stuck to my plan. I like to bowl the ‘wrong on’ ball. It is a good responsibility because it means that the captain and management trust me.”

Who will be India’s next T20I captain, will Hardik’s experience outweigh Suryakumar? Know what the statistics say
Hardik Pandya was the vice-captain of Team India during T20 World Cup 2024 Hardik Pandya And SKY (Image Credit- Twitter X) There is an ongoing discussion about who will be the next T20 captain of the Indian team after Rohit Sharma’s retirement from T20I. Hardik Pandya was the vice-captain of Team India during the T20 World Cup 2024 and hence it was believed that he would lead the team after Rohit. But now reports have surfaced that SuryaKumar Yadav is the first choice of new head coach Gautam Gambhir as the T20 captain. Let us tell you that Hardik Pandya’s performance as captain in IPL 2024 was not good. However, he did tremendous captaincy for Gujarat Titans in two seasons. He made GT the champion in their very first edition and took them to the finals in the second season. After two good seasons with GT, he joined Mumbai Indians this year and the franchise made him the captain. But under Hardik’s captaincy, MI could win only 4 out of 14 matches. He was criticized a lot then and was also trolled a lot during the tournament. However, the all-rounder silenced everyone with his performance in the T20 World Cup. In IPL 2024, Hardik took 11 wickets along with scoring 216 runs in 13 matches, but in the T20 World Cup, apart from scoring 144 runs in 6 innings, he also took 11 wickets in 8 matches. According to reports, Hardik Pandya’s injuries in the past had an impact on the team combination. For this reason, Gautam Gambhir is in favor of making a player the captain who remains in the team regularly. Time will tell who will become the next captain between Hardik and Suryakumar Yadav, but let’s take a look at the captaincy record of both of them in T20 Internationals. Suriya looks better when compared to T20I captaincy, see stats Hardik Pandya’s captaincy record in T20I Matches- 16Wins- 10Defeat- 5Tie – 1Win percentage- 65.62 Hardik’s captaincy record in IPL Matches- 45Wins- 26Defeat- 19Win percentage- 57.77 Suryakumar Yadav’s captaincy record in T20I Match- 7Wins- 5Necklace- 2Win percentage- 71.42 Now the question arises whether Hardik will be able to win back India’s T20 captaincy by defeating Suryakumar on the basis of his experience? Team India is to be announced for the series against Sri Lanka in a few days, then it will be known who will be the next captain?
3 reasons why Sanju Samson should consistently find a place in Team India’s playing XI in T20 cricket
Let us know these reasons Sanju Samson (Image Credit- X) Indian cricket team’s experienced wicketkeeper batsman Sanju Samson has not got a chance to play consistently for Team India. Since his T20 debut in 2015, he has been able to play only 28 T20 and 16 ODI matches for Team India in 9 years. He was selected in the Indian team that won the recently concluded ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024, but he did not get a chance to play a single match. But now the time has come that he should get a chance to play T20 cricket consistently for Team India. It is worth noting that after the T20 World Cup, captain Rohit Sharma, former captain Virat Kohli and all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja have decided to say goodbye to the game. So after the departure of these 3 players, Sanju can play an important role in batting in the middle order. 1. Rishabh Pant has more chances than Sanju Sanju Samson. (Image Source: X) Let us tell you that at present Rishabh Pant is the first choice wicketkeeper of the Indian cricket team management in all three formats. So when he had a car accident, it was expected that Sanju Samson would be selected in the Indian team for the T20 World Cup 2024, but after a strong comeback in IPL 2024, he was once again successful in winning the trust of the selectors. However, when it comes to the Indian team, Pant has a lot of opportunities to prove himself in the shortest format of the game, but that is not the case with Sanju as compared to him. Pant has played a total of 74 T20 matches for Team India so far, in which he has scored just 1158 runs at an average of 22.70 and a strike rate of 126.55. Pant made his debut three years after Sanju’s debut, but then he got more opportunities. But at this time the Indian management may look towards Pant in Tests and ODIs and Sanju in T20 cricket.
Abhishek Sharma should be included in India’s 15-member squad for the Sri Lanka series: Saba Karim
Now India has to tour Sri Lanka in which a three-match T20 series and a three-match ODI series will be played. This tour is starting from 27 July. ABHISHEK SHARMA (Image Credit- Twitter X) In the five-match Test series played against Zimbabwe, all the players of India performed very well and won the series 4-1. Let us tell you, India had to face defeat in the first match against Zimbabwe. However, after this the team made a very good comeback and won all its remaining four matches. Now India has to tour Sri Lanka in which a three-match T20 series and a three-match ODI series will be played. This tour is starting from July 27. However, before this tour, former Indian cricketer Saba Karim has given a statement that Yashasvi Jaiswal and Shubman Gill should open the team. Not only this, Saba Karim also hopes that Abhishek Sharma will also be included in this Indian team. Saba Karim told Sony Sports, ‘The most important position will be the top order. I think the selectors will go with Yashasvi Jaiswal and Shubman Gill. I believe Abhishek Sharma should be included in the 15-member squad as Rishabh Pant will be seen batting at number three and Suryakumar Yadav at number four. It will also have to be seen who captains the T20 format? Gautam Gambhir is the head coach and it will be very important to see what is the plan of the captain and the head coach? They will have to select the players accordingly. Rituraj Gaikwad is also there and it will be very difficult for the selectors to select the players. India’s tour of Sri Lanka starts from 27 July Let us tell you, Abhishek Sharma scored his first international T20 century in the second T20 match played against Zimbabwe. Not only this, Yashasvi Jaiswal played important innings of 36 runs and 93* runs after his return. The best thing for the Indian team is that all their players are in tremendous form at this time. Shubman Gill also played the top order role quite well. The bowlers also performed very well in this series. Now it remains to be seen whether the experienced players of the Indian team are called back in the T20 series against Sri Lanka or only young players are given a chance? 5 Australian players who scored half-century in their debut IPL match IPL 2024: These 11 foreign players took crores of rupees but flopped IPL 2024: 5 players who hit the most sixes in the 19th and 20th overs of IPL 5 fastest bowlers in IPL history Who are the head coaches of all 10 teams in IPL 2024?
