IND vs SL Live: Suryakumar Yadav Dropped From India's Playing 11 for Sri Lanka After Spectacular Performance In T20 Series

IND vs SL Live: Suryakumar Yadav Dropped From India’s Playing 11 for Sri Lanka After Spectacular Performance In T20 Series. The Indian team management has dropped Suryakumar Yadav from India’s Playing XI for the first ODI vs Sri Lanka despite having such a good performance in the recently concluded T20I series.

In a press conference done by Rohit Sharma, the Indian captain, ahead of the game, Sharma confirmed that Shubman gill will open alongside him in the ODI series and Ishan Kishan will sit out too. He also confirmed that KL Rahul will continue to bat at number 5 for the Men in Blue in the ODIs, which blocks Surya’s entry into the team.

Rohit and Shubman will open followed by Virat Kohli at number 3. Shreyas Iyer has been the best Indian batter in the ODIs over the last year and hence, he will occupy the number 4 spot followed by KL Rahul as the wicketkeeper-batter.

India thumped Sri Lanka by 91 runs in the last match of the three-match T20I series. This victory was greatly aided by the ever-reliable Suryakumar Yadav, whose heroics over the previous year had lighted up the T20I arena. Surya demonstrated his skills against Sri Lanka yet again.

Rahul Tripathi was removed after amassing a scorching 35, and SKY was then given the opportunity to bat from position four. In the shortest format of the game, he quickly cranked up the tempo of the innings and smacked 112 runs off just 51 balls to reach his third hundred.

To reach this milestone, SKY hit 7 fours, 9 sixes, plus a few of his signature scoops behind the wicket. He actually lost his balance while attempting the shot, but the ball still went across the goal line.

Rajkumar Sharma, a former coach of Virat Kohli, asserts that Suryakumar Yadav excels at the scoop shot. This assertion is supported by Tilakaratne Dilshan and AB de Villiers, two shot experts.
