Suryakumar Yadav’s journey as India’s T20 captain hasn’t been easy, with runs and form slipping since taking over from Rohit Sharma
After a brilliant 75 off 35 balls in Hyderabad and a ton against Bangladesh in 2024, his form has now sharply declined
As captain, Suryakumar has scored just 329 runs in 19 innings at an average of 19.35, with only two fifties.
This year, he managed only 99 runs in 10 innings, averaging 12.37 with a strike rate of 110, highlighting a worrying slump
In the ongoing Asia Cup, he has scored 71 runs in 5 innings at an average of 23.66, struggling to find his former explosive form
As India prepares for the high-pressure final against Pakistan, all eyes will be on whether Suryakumar can regain his mojo and lead from the front
