"Le Squad 🔥."
Suryakumar Yadav was last seen in action in the second ODI against England at Lord's on July 14. The right-handed batter scored 27 off 29 while chasing 247 but failed to convert the start. India fell short by 100 runs as the hosts squared off in the three-match series.
With the series in line, India and England will face each other in the deciding match on Sunday at Old Trafford in Manchester.
Suryakumar Yadav highest-ranked Indian batter in T20I cricket
Suryakumar continued his brilliant form in the three-match T20I series, helping India win the series 2-1. He jumped a whopping 44 spots to achieve his career-best No. 5 ranking in the shortest format.
He finished as the highest run-scorer in the three matches, amassing 171 runs at an average of 57 and a strike rate of over 200. The Mumbai-born batter registered his first century in T20Is after scoring 117 runs in the third T20I. However, he ended up on the losing side.
Suryakumar, who also achieved a career rating of 732, is now India's highest-ranked T20I batter. Having made his debut last year, he is an integral part of India's T20I set-up. He will now look to keep this momentum going with the ICC T20 World Cup 2022 lined up in a few months' time in Australia.
The right-handed batter has amassed 537 runs in 17 T20I innings at a strike rate of 177.22, including four fifties and one century.
