Suryakumar the new Mr 360, without him India will have to struggle to score 140-150: Gavaskar

New Delhi. Former batting great Sunil Gavaskar has said that Suryakumar Yadav has become the new Mr 360 degrees and if he fails, India will struggle to score enough runs. World number one T20 batsman Suryakumar has impressed in his very first T20 World Cup and his impressive performance in the Super 12 stage eased India’s road to the semi-finals. In the final Super 12 match against Zimbabwe, Surya scored an unbeaten 61 off 25 balls. Gavaskar said, “In each of these innings, he scored 360 degrees. That’s the new Mr. 360 degrees. He hit a six off the wicketkeeper’s left side which was brilliant. In the final overs, he took advantage of the bowler’s angle and played shots. He also played straight drive.

The former India captain believes that it is because of Suryakumar that India is being able to make a defendable score. Gavaskar said, “He is really becoming someone who is taking India to a score that can be defended. The runs scored by India is the highest score in a T20 International at the MCG. Without his unbeaten 61, India would not have reached even 150 runs. Gavaskar said that if Suryakumar fails that Rahul will have to take the responsibility. He said, “If Surya fails then India will also have to fight to score 140-150 runs so it is very important that Rahul takes the responsibility.” Captain Rohit Sharma is also battling for form and only 89 in five matches. Has been able to score runs, including an innings of 53 runs against the Netherlands.

Gavaskar said, “Hopefully he has his runs saved for the last two matches. This will be the biggest match. In a group match, you know that there will be another match, so sometimes you try harder and get out.” He said, “Now these are knockout matches. You can’t use too much in knockout matches. You have to give your best. Hope Rohit does well.
