Suryakumar Yadav’s dip in form throughout 2025 has emerged as a major concern for India’s T20I setup
Experts feel Surya has become predictable, relying too much on leg-side shots and struggling to balance his off-side game
Since becoming full-time T20I captain, Surya’s average has dropped sharply, raising questions about the burden of leadership
Surya’s aggressive 360-degree style brings impact, but during lean phases, it also leads to quick dismissals and visible failures
No half-centuries in 2025, average around 14, and a strike rate near 123, a big drop from his past standards
Surya insists he’s not out of form, just out of runs, confident that time in the middle will bring his touch back
