Suryakumar Yadav has continued to struggle with his form in the ongoing T20I series against Australia. In four matches, India’s T20I captain registered the scores of 39*, 1, 24, and 20, aggregating just 84 runs at an average of 28.00, raising concerns over his consistency in the shortest format. Suryakumar’s yet another modest performance with the bat in the fourth T20I further sparked debate on his form.
Ever since taking over full-time T20I captaincy in July last year, Suryakumar Yadav’s form has been dwindling as he has amassed 414 runs, including 2 fifties, at an average of 19.71 in 26 matches. This is a stark contrast to his pre-captaincy performance, wherein he aggregated 2040 runs, including 3 centuries, at an average of 43.40 in 61 matches.
