Suryakumar Yadav’s selection for the Asia Cup and ODI World Cup to be held in 2023 is now in trouble: The opening game of the three-match ODI series between India and the West Indies has already been played, and Team India easily prevailed. Unexpectedly, Team India conducted some of these batting order experiments in this game. It is now an incomprehensible puzzle as to why such a question could not be answered despite all of this. Suryakumar Yadav’s odd relationship with ODI cricket, where even after trying everything, things still don’t work, is an unsolvable puzzle.
Only 115 runs were needed to win the first game in Barbados against the West Indies. Captain Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli did not show up to bat at their usual locations in this circumstance. While Kohli did not require it in the least, Rohit was compelled to bat at number seven. Suryakumar Yadav was given a chance to replace Kohli at position three in this circumstance. It was anticipated that he would defeat the Windies team by holding down the wicket for an extended period of time.
For Surya, this performance was crucial because his previous three ODI innings had been a nightmare. He kept being dismissed in each of the three one-day international matches he played against Australia in March without taking a wicket. In Barbados, he was successful in opening an account. On his go-to hook shot, he also hit a six behind the wicket. This, however, did not last long, and as he attempted to sweep left-arm spinner Gudkesh Moti’s ball, he was out LBW.
What matters more is finding out how long Surya will have access to these opportunities. Is it time to call this number and try Sanju Samson? It is obvious that it will be difficult for him to be chosen for the World Cup, let alone the Asia Cup, with such a form. It is obvious that Shreyas Iyer and KL Rahul are crucial players for Team India.
