India’s middle-order batter Suryakumar Yadav has emerged as one of the finest T20 batters in the world. In the game against South Africa at Guwahati, SKY smashed an 18-ball half-century to help the Indian cricket team post a big total. In the end, the Indian side registered a narrow win of 16 runs. During the game, Surya formed a partnership with former India captain Virat Kohli and together they added 102 runs for the fourth wicket.
Suryakumar and Kohli played crucial knocks for the Rohit Sharma-led side and helped the hosts to post a massive total. Suryakumar top-scored for India as the star batter smashed 61 off 22 balls in the high-scoring thriller against South Africa. His stunning knock was laced with 5 boundaries and 5 sixes. Former Indian skipper Kohli remained unbeaten on 49 off 28 balls to help India post 237-3 in 20 overs.
While the fans around the world are enjoying SKY’s dreamy run in the shortest format, however, it was Virat Kohli who got the best seat in the house to witness Suryakumar’s blockbuster show. And this wasn’t the first time, be it his knock against Hong Kong, or his incredible strokeplay against Australia in Hyderabad, or his stunning performance in Guwahati last night, Kohli got the best seat as a non-strike on all of these occasions. And Virat Kohli is very impressed with Suryakumar Yadav and his reactions on-field is a proof of the same.
Meanwhile, after the game, SKY shared the highlights of the game through a series of pictures on Instagram. Check out his post:
