T20 series: Tilak, Hardik sparkle, Surya struggles
Hindustan Times Punjab
|December 21, 2025
Another T201 bilateral series win means India’s preparation for the T20 World Cup couldn't probably get any better.
Barring a few glaring misses though. Already set back by a few slow scores, a toe injury was probably the last thing Shubman Gill wanted right now, the selectors leaving him out of the squad for the February-March tournament named on Saturday. More baffling is the string of lean scores for skipper Suryakumar Yadav who ended the year without a fifty.
It's not about the runs, but the form. However, in a format where runs must come fast and wickets are cheap, the threshold tends to be low. And Surya’s form is hovering dangerously below that bar now. It’s not just about his scoring, but the manner of his dismissals cause concern. Caught at the deep last time off his favourite leg ramp, then at mid-off trying to lift Corbin Bosch on Friday, Surya’s stocks have slipped quite a bit for someone who once stood out in a pack of superstars against South Africa on a quick Perth pitch in the 2022 T20 World Cup.
