Virat sacrificed his batting position for me: Suryakumar Yadav hails Kohli after New Zealand win

After starring in India's 5-wicket win over New Zealand, Suryakumar Yadav hailed Virat Kohli for sacrificing his batting position in the T20 World Cup.

Suryakumar Yadav heaped rich praise on Virat Kohli after starring in India's 5-wicket win over New Zealand, saying the former T20I captain sacrificed his No.3 spot and allowed SKY to bat at that position in the team's final T20 World Cup match against Namibia.

Notably, Suryakumar Yadav made full use of the opportunity to bat at No. 3 in the absence of Kohli, who had been rested for the 3-match series. Yadav scored 62 off 40 balls to help India beat New Zealand by five wickets in their first T20 match on Wednesday.
