SL vs Ind first T20I | Suryakumar’s batting is amazing to watch, says Shikhar Dhawan

While Dhawan admitted that he thought they were “10-15 runs short”, he also assessed that it wasn’t too bad in terms of recovery

Suryakumar Yadav, with his 360 degree shots, is “amazing” to watch, said India captain Shikhar Dhawan after a crushing 38-run win over Sri Lanka in the first T20 International in Colombo on Sunday. Surya scored 50 off 34 balls, his second half-century in his fourth T20 International and was involved in a 62-run stand for the third wicket with Dhawan. “He(Surya) is a great player and we enjoy watching him bat. He took the pressure from me and the way he plays calculated shots was amazing to watch,” Dhawan said at the post-match presentation ceremony. While Dhawan admitted that he thought they were “10-15 runs short”, he also assessed that it wasn’t too bad in terms of recovery.
