New Delhi. For Suryakumar Yadav, the last 5 days were probably the worst days of his career. The ODI series between India and Australia started from 17 March, which lasted till 22 March. Australia won 2-1 in this, but the biggest thing. Surya could not even open the account in all the three matches and he was dismissed on the first ball. After this, questions are being raised on his ODI career. Surya is the number-1 batsman of T20 and he is called 360 degree batsman. Now it has to be seen whether he gets a chance in the next ODI series or not.
Suryakumar Yadav fell victim to fast bowler Mitchell Starc in the first two ODIs. Stark did him LBW. At the same time, in the last match, he was bowled by left-arm spinner Ashton Agar. Due to the injury of Shreyas Iyer, Surya got a chance in the entire series, but his poor performance has raised concerns from captain Rohit Sharma to coach Rahul Dravid.
Waiting for half century from one year and 15 innings
If we look at Suryakumar Yadav’s ODI record, he has not been able to score a half-century in one year and 15 innings. He scored the last half-century in ODIs in February 2022.
