What Surya Kumar Yadav Said

After the Indian team’s resounding victory over Pakistan, captain Surya Kumar Yadav said that batting first was the best option on this pitch, and they scored 175 runs to knock the opposition out of the match. The Indian captain praised both his batsmen and bowlers, saying they played the cricket they wanted to play.

Surya Kumar said, “We played the cricket we wanted to play.” Ishan also batted in his usual style (as he had been doing in the last few matches and domestic cricket). Ishan thought differently. After losing the first wicket for one run, someone needed to take responsibility, and he did a wonderful job.

Which players did Suryakumar Yadav praise?

Suryakumar Yadav said that the way they (Tilak Verma, Shivam Dubey, and Rinku Singh) batted was commendable. Hardik attacked with the new ball, and then Bumrah showed why he is the best in the world. It was great to see everyone contributing.

How many runs did India score?

For information, let us tell you that the Indian cricket team, batting first at the Premadasa Stadium in Colombo, scored 175 runs for the loss of 7 wickets in 20 overs. This target proved to be a challenge for the Pakistani batsmen. The Pakistani team was reduced to 114 runs in 18 overs. For India, Jasprit Bumrah, Varun Chakravarthy, Hardik Pandya, and Axar Patel took two wickets each.

This victory is dedicated to India.

Captain Surya Kumar Yadav said, “This is for India. Batting first was the better option on this pitch. Batting first was difficult to predict. But once we reached 175, we felt we had scored 15-20 runs more than what would have been a competitive total. At 155, it would have been a very close contest.

India Riding on an Unbeaten Chariot
