Indian captain Suryakumar Yadav has openly admitted that he is struggling to strike the right balance between T20I and ODI cricket. Now, Suryakumar Yadav wants to take inspiration from South African legend AB de Villiers, who mastered both formats with ease.
The stylish Indian batter is facing one of the toughest phases of his career. Despite leading India to Asia Cup 2025 glory, Suryakumar's recent form with the bat has become a major concern. In his last nine T20I innings, he has crossed the 30-run mark only twice.
Suryakumar Yadav wants to crack the ODI-T20I balanceFour of those innings ended in single digits, and even he was once dismissed for a duck. On the other hand, Suryakumar's ODI numbers tell a worrying story. In 35 ODI innings, he has managed just 773 runs at an average of 25.76. Now, he hasn't been part of India's ODI plans since 2023.
