IPL 2021: Suryakumar Yadav struggling to find form ahead of T20 World Cup 2021 next month
Zee News
The 31-year-old Suryakumar Yadav, who looked in fine touch when the India’s second team under Shikhar Dhawan toured Sri Lanka in July for a limited-overs series, has scores of 0, 8, 5 and 3 in the four matches he has played in the IPL’s second leg.
Mumbai Indians batsman Suryakumar Yadav was picked ahead of experienced opener Shikhar Dhawan of the Delhi Capitals for the T20 World Cup 2021 next month. However, the young Mumbai batsman has been struggling to find his touch ever since IPL 2021 resumed in the UAE earlier this month.
On Tuesday (September 28), there was yet another failure for Yadav with the willow as he was dismissed for first-ball duck by Ravi Bishnoi of Punjab Kings. Defending champions MI, however, went on to win the match by six wickets thanks to the efforts of Saurabh Tiwary and Hardik Pandya.
Former India cricketers Virender Sehwag and Ajay Jadeja sympathized with Yadav’s poor run of form and reckoned every player goes through such a phase and are confident that he will bounce back.
