Think scoring runs and not getting out: former Australian skipper
-
Suryakumar Yadav's poor run of form over the last 18 months has surprised Australian great Ricky Ponting, who believes the Indian skipper should think about scoring runs and not getting out in the lead up to the T20 World Cup.
Ranked world no 1 not so long ago, Suryakumar spent a torrid time in the shortest format in 2025 managing a mere 218 runs in 21 matches (19 innings) at 13.62 and a strike rate of 123.16, which remains a concern for the defending champions ahead of next month's T20 World Cup.
