TIL Desk Sports/ Former Australia captain Ricky Ponting has heaped praise on India’s in-form middle-order batter Suryakumar Yadav, saying the right-handed batter is doing better “than anyone’s ever done it”.
Suryakumar, the top-ranked batter in T20Is, was recently named the winner of the ICC Men’s T20I Cricketer of the Year 2022 award for becoming just the second batter to score more than 1000 runs in a year in the format with his astonishing 360-degree strokeplay.
He was the highest run-getter in T20Is in 2022, scoring 1,164 runs at a ridiculous strike rate of 187.43, averaging 46.56. His tally of 68 sixes in 2022 is the highest anyone has hit in the format in a year by a fair distance.
“He’s probably doing it better than anyone’s ever done it right now. We talk about players that can score 360 degrees… some of the shots he’s hitting back behind the wicket-keeper and over fine leg are just remarkable.
