The Wankhede Stadium is Suryakumar Yadav’s home ground in domestic cricket. Will serve as the venue for his upcoming debut in an international match. Mumbai has a long tradition of producing some of India’s greatest batters in cricket. This includes Sachin Tendulkar, who holds a plethora of run-scoring records that are still well out of reach for batters. Sunil Gavaskar was the first player to score 10,000 runs in Test cricket.
Mumbai is also well-known for its well-known “khadoos” attitude, and praise is hard to come by. Therefore, it is quite remarkable when Suryakumar Yadav. Who rewrote a number of lines in the T20I cricket record books in 2022? Is compared to Gavaskar, Tendulkar, and Vijay Manjrekar. A decade ago, Vilas Godbole, was the coach of the Mumbai under-22 team. Claimed that he had whispered to a teenage Suryakumar that he would one day play for India.
He was also extremely talented at the time. Although his return was remarkable, we can now argue that he should have played for India earlier. He was playing medium pacer reverse sweeps, as I observed. The Indian Express quotes Godbole as saying, “I have seen (Sunil) Gavaskar-(Sachin) Tendulkar closely, but never saw someone so special.” Godbole stated that the legendary Manjrekar is likened to the confidence with which Suryakumar bats.
When India plays Sri Lanka in the first T20I of the three-match series on Tuesday. The 32-year-old captained Mumbai in the Ranji Trophy and played for them in their most recent match against Saurashtra. Will finally play international cricket at Mumbai’s home ground, Wankhede Stadium.
The game’s tone is set by the best players. They are aware of the bowlers’ destinations. A great batsman possesses this quality. I can now see it in Surya, as it was in Gavaskar and Tendulkar.
They are aware of the bowler’s intended location. Because he can also hit behind the wicket, Surya is more dangerous,” he stated. In 2022, Suryakumar became only the second batter in the format to score more than 1000 runs in a single year. His count of 68 sixes in the scheduled year in T20s is the most noteworthy anybody has kept in the organization in a year by a fair distance. Surya was named vice-captain for the Sri Lanka T20Is. Despite the absence of KL Rahul due to his incredible run in the shortest format. In the absence of the regular captain Rohit Sharma, Hardik was given the responsibility of leading the team.
