Gujarat Titans’ (GT) star batter Sai Sudharsan had a dream IPL 2025 season, scoring 759 runs at a staggering average of 54.21 and a strike rate of 156.17. But his team was knocked out in the eliminator as the Mumbai Indians (MI) defeated them. After that match, Sudharsan said that he needs to improve a lot of things as a T20 batter.When he was asked about his chances in the coming T20 World Cup next year, he said: “I mean, playing for the country is obviously a dream for everybody, so I would love to do that. But I’m not thinking on those lines because if you see about the season, I have a lot of things to improve as a T20 batter. There are so many facets of the game, or so many sectors, I should improve when I play T20 again. So I’m focusing more on that. Of course, when I get an opportunity, I will give my best for the country.”

“I think I played seven [county] games so it gave me a great experience” – Sai Sudharsan

“It’s good to see that I had a good season or I was consistent enough for my team, but I think when the job is not finished, you don’t get the ultimate satisfaction when you get back home. So, definitely, there’s a lot of disappointment in the [team] environment because of the way we played the first 12 or 13 games, which was fantastic to see as a group or as a team from outside. Even when in hindsight you look at a season like this, I think our team was so good they did a lot of jobs really well. So finishing a tournament like this, definitely it doesn’t give that complete satisfaction. But, yeah, appreciating the performances and of course learning from it is the is the thing forward,” he further added.

Sudharsan has already made his debut for India in white-ball cricket, having played 3 ODIs and a lone T20 match. He has been selected to play for the Indian Test team in England, and while talking about his county experience, he said: “I think I played seven [county] games so it gave me a great experience, to be honest. It improved my batting multiple-folds in terms of technique and in terms of basics. It told me basics are the most important thing in batting. So it should help me and I’ll focus more on what I learnt and I’ll try and be aware and create those awarenesses before going into the series.”
