Suryakumar Yadav has gotten high commendation from the incomparable Ricky Ponting, who contrasted the hitter and AB de Villiers, saying the Indian has a 360 degree game like the South African virtuoso.
Ponting recommended that Yadav ought to bat at number four in the Indian line-up. “Surya (Yadav) scores 360 degrees around the ground, a piece like an AB de Villiers did when he was in his genuine prime. The lap shots, the late cuts, you know, the inclines over the manager’s head. He can hit down the ground,” Ponting said on the most recent episode of The ICC Review.
He hits all around well over the leg side, flicks to profound in reverse square especially well, and he’s a decent player of quick bowling and is a decent player of twist bowling.” Yadav, 31, has scored 672 runs at a normal of 37.33 and a strike pace of 175.45 in 23 T20 matches and presently sits at No.2 in the ICC T20 Batter Rankings, behind Pakistan captain Babar Azam.
He’s an extremely, energizing player and I’m certain somebody that will wind up in their group, in addition to their crew,” Ponting, who has seen Yadav very close in his initial a long time at Mumbai Indians, said.
I think you’d track down him in their group for the T20 World Cup. Furthermore, on the off chance that he’s in that group, I think every one of the fans in Australia will see a, great player.
He’s a seriously sure individual. He backs himself and he’s never going to step down from a test or any circumstance that emerges in a game. I feel he wants to win what is happening and in this manner continue and dominate the match for his group. Asked whether Yadav would make India’s best XI, the previous Australian captain said he has “played better compared to any other person in the Indian group for the last several series” and ought to be opened at the top request.
It must be in the main four, I think. I expressed stay with him (Virat Kohli) in his customary spot, which has been number three, Ponting, a double cross World Cup-winning commander, said.
For Surya, it’s one, two or four. I figure he can open, yet I believe he’s presumably, you know, on the off chance that you could most likely get him far from the new ball, let him control the center piece of the game external the Powerplay, through in the center, and assuming he’s in toward the end, you realize what can occur.” Yadav’s strike rate increases to 258.82 in the passing overs in T20Is – – in 34 balls he has crushed 88 runs with 15 of those conveyances going for limits.
Ponting said: “I think in the main four is, all things considered, really I’ll take a risk: I don’t believe that he should open. I think number four is his best spot.” Australia will have the T20 World Cup in October-November.
