Is Suryakumar Yadav the true successor of AB de Villers? Like the South African genius, ‘Sky’ too has a ‘360 degree’ range of shots, which can leave the bowlers tearing their hair in frustration.
Leaving everyone mesmerized with his magical strokeplay, ‘Surya’, playing the lone ranger on a burning deck, blasted his maiden international century (117, 55b, 14x4, 6x6), but couldn’t prevent India from going down to England by 17 runs in a high-scoring third T20I against England at Trent Bridge in Nottingham on Sunday. The visitors still finished the series as 2-1 winners, with the tour moving to its final leg-the three match ODI series which kicks off on Tuesday.
When Yadav walked in, India, chasing 216, were 13 for two in the third over, with Rishabh Pant (1) and out-of-form former India captain Virat Kohli (11) back in the hut. The score soon became 31 for three in five overs as skipper Rohit Sharma (11) too succumbed to English seamer Recce Topley, who finished with superb figures of 3-22 on a flat track.
However, unleashing some unbelievable, mind-boggling strokeplay while galloping away to become the fifth Indian batsman to score a T20I hundred, Yadav added 119 for the fourth wicket off just 61 balls, with fellow Mumbaikar Shreyas Iyer (28, 23b, 2x4), before the latter again succumbed to the short ball, edging Topley behind the stumps after making room.
