Suryakumar Yadav showed his different side of batting as he cut down on his aggressive batting to score an unbeaten 26 to guide Hardik Pandya’s side to a series-levelling six-wicket win over New Zealand in the second T20I match in Lucknow. After the match, Surya made a hilarious revelation in an interaction with Yuzvendra Chahal on the sidelines of a chat which included Kuldeep Yadav. The Indian batsman said: "I followed the advice of Yuzvendra Chahal which he gave me in the last series. I want to learn more from him, he’s my batting coach, sab sikhata hai mujhe (he teaches me everything),” Suryakumar Yadav said.
During the interaction, Kuldeep Yadav said that a different version of SKY was on display while batting as he had to adapt to the situation on a ‘very challenging wicket’. “A different version of SKY today. Adapting to the situation was very important when I went to bat. After losing Washy, it was important for someone to take the game to the end,” SKY said at the post-match presentation.
