India’s number-one ranked T20I batter Suryakumar Yadav on Monday expressed optimism that the upcoming Asia Cup will serve as a tournament where he finally manages to crack the ODI code, adding that he has been talking a lot to the head coach Rahul Dravid, senior players like skipper Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli and practicing to play as per situation.
India’s Asia Cup campaign will start in the match against arch-rivals Pakistan on September 2. During the tournament, a lot of eyeballs will be on Suryakumar, or ‘SKY’ as he is known to fans. The batter had taken the cricketing world by storm with his audacious stroke-making and consistency in T20Is but is struggling to make an impact in ODIs despite a promising start in that format as well.
“I would try to fulfill the role I am given by the team, no matter what role. This is a format I am looking forward to doing well in. I am doing great in T20Is. But these both are white-ball formats. Why I cannot crack the code here, people are wondering,” Suryakumar told Star Sports. (ANI)
