Veteran India opener Shikhar Dhawan lauded Suryakumar Yadav for playing fearless cricket. As Team India enters a transitional phase, Dhawan appreciated the approach of younger players coming through the ranks and acknowledged his own challenges in the limited-overs set-up.

“It’s really good to see. Change is the only constant thing in life. You have to adapt with time. It is lovely to see how players have come up with new strategies and new ways of thinking,” Dhawan said as quoted by the ICC.

“Even like… we’ve been playing for such a long time, we get so inspired by all the young players when they come up with some new shots, and personally I ask ‘how you played that?'”

“I was asking SKY, ‘What do you do, man?’ So he was like, ‘I just bend and I do this’. I said I am going to try that in the nets as well because the more tools you can carry, it gets easier and it’s a wonderful mindset.”
