Suryakumar Yadav, India’s all-rounder and the greatest match-winner in T20 cricket, is regarded as the greatest white-ball cricketer of our time. But he did not shine in ODI cricket as much as he did in T20 cricket.
Suryakumar Yadav, who has accumulated 1675 runs with 3 centuries in 48 matches in T20 cricket, has scored only 433 runs in 23 matches with just two fifties in ODI cricket.
As Shreyas Iyer, who usually plays in the 4th row in ODIs, did not play in the ODI series against Australia due to injury, Suryakumar Yadav got a chance to drop in the 4th row in this series. But as no one expected, Golden ducked out in the first ball of all the 3 matches and shocked him. A hat-trick golden duck out and joins the undesirable list as well.

Shreyas Iyer is likely to miss the One Day World Cup as he is undergoing surgery. While he was set at number 4 in the ODI team, Suryakumar Yadav is the main option of the Indian team in that line if he is unable to play. But he also got a hat-trick golden duck out and has come under criticism. His average in ODI cricket is just 22. But the support for Sanju Samson, who has the best average of 66 in ODI cricket, was deliberately ignored by the Indian team and Samson should be replaced by Suryakumar Yadav.
But Kapil Dev had said that Suryakumar Yadav should not be compared with Sanju Samson. In this matter, the final decision should be taken by the Indian team management. In that way, the Indian team management is trusting and supporting Suryakumar Yadav. The 4th row batting order was the problem in the last 2019 ODI World Cup. Now Shreyas Iyer’s injury has raised the same issue ahead of the 2023 ODI World Cup.

Yuvraj Singh has expressed hope that Suryakumar Yadav will make a comeback.
