Suryakumar Yadav's Resurgence: India Finds T20 World Cup Missing Piece

• Suryakumar Yadav scored back-to-back fifties (82 off 37 in Raipur, 57 off 26 in Guwahati) after a lean patch of 23 innings without a fifty.
• His recent performances, especially the 360-degree hitting, have brought relief to the team management ahead of the T20 World Cup.
• Gavaskar noted Suryakumar's return to form was due to confidence, not luck, after struggling with runs despite good net sessions.
• In Raipur, early dismissals allowed him to consolidate, starting slow (10 off 10) before accelerating to 72 off 27 balls, dismantling pacers.
• In Guwahati, he strategically targeted spinners, allowing Abhishek Sharma to dominate while building his innings, showcasing adaptability.

Why It Matters: Suryakumar Yadav's return to form provides India with a crucial middle-order anchor for the T20 World Cup.
