Suryakumar Yadav's ODI Struggle: "Tried Hard, But Nothing Special Happened"
•Suryakumar Yadav, ICC T20 World Cup winning captain, expressed his pain after being dropped from the ODI team, admitting his T20 strength.
•He stated that despite trying hard, he couldn't perform well in ODI cricket, calling it a challenging format he "could never understand."
•Suryakumar desires to play Test cricket, having played red-ball cricket for 10-12 years in Mumbai before T20.
•He described ODI batting as requiring three different approaches: Test-like if early wickets fall, good strike rate for middle overs, and T20-like in final overs.
•With 3272 runs in 113 T20Is (4 centuries), Suryakumar has a T20 average of 36.35, but only 25.76 in 37 ODIs and 8 runs in his sole Test.
