Yadav becomes the 3rd highest-run scorer so far in T20 World Cup, 2022
Chandigarh: Suryakumar Yadav has outshone and now stands tall as number one T20I batter and the third highest-run scorer so far in T20 World Cup, 2022.
Playing one of the best knocks of his life during his team’s final Super 12 match, the 32-year-old smashed an unbeaten 61 off just 25 balls against Zimbabwe on Sunday, November 6, including six boundaries and four sixes.
Yadav helped the Men in Blue finish as table-toppers in Group 2, securing a place straight into the semis.
After the India vs Zimbabwe match on Sunday, Yadav took to his Instagram to share pictures of himself from the match with the caption, “No better feeling”.
Former India skipper Virat Kohli didn’t hold back from showering praises on the cricketer and commented, “Alag level”.
His comment lauding the player’s heroics soon went viral on social media.
Kohli and Yadav have shared some match-winning partnerships for India in the ongoing tournament.
“Alag Level”: Virat Kohli’s post on social media
Right-handed player Suryakumar Yadav is currently the No.1 ranked T20I batsman and his knock against Zimbabwe in the T20 World Cup Super 12 stage proved why he is rated so highly among the cricket fraternity.
This innings by Yadav helped Team India post 186/5 in 20 overs. He had walked out to bat in the 12th over, and provided the much-needed impetus to the Indian innings, and the Melbourne crowd were in for a treat.
This was Suryakumar’s third half-century of the tournament and he played some mind-blowing strokes in the match yet again.
