Suryakumar Yadav IND vs SL: All eyes will be on Suryakumar Yadav in the match between India and Sri Lanka to be played in Rajkot. Surya scored a half-century in the Pune T20 match. But he could not do anything special in Mumbai. Surya can break a special record of Rohit Sharma in Rajkot. Rohit is the highest T20 run scorer for India in Rajkot. But Surya will have to work hard to break this record.
Rohit Sharma holds the record for scoring the most T20 International runs at the Saurashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Rajkot. He has scored 98 runs in the three matches he has played so far. Suryakumar will play T20 match for India for the first time on this ground. However, it will not be easy for him to break Rohit’s record of scoring the most runs. For this, he has to score 99 runs. It will not be easy for Surya to score big in this match.
If we look at the list of players who scored the most T20 International runs in Rajkot, then Rohit is followed by Virat Kohli. Kohli has scored 94 runs in two matches. Yuvraj Singh is in third place with 77 runs. Yuvi has scored these runs in just one match. Mahendra Singh Dhoni is in fourth place. He has scored 73 runs in two matches.

Significantly, during the Rajkot T20 match, India will expect Surya as well as Shubman Gill and Ishaan Kishan. Both of them are great players. Shubman has not been able to do anything special in this series. But he has another chance in Rajkot. They can play an important role in India’s victory by performing well. Indian bowler Arshdeep Singh was a victim of criticism because of the last match. If he is given a chance this time, he will have to prove himself with good bowling.
