Suryakumar Yadav Warned Over Poor Form Amid Shubman Gill's Shock T20 World Cup Snub

  • Shubman Gill was surprisingly dropped from India's T20 World Cup squad despite being vice-captain, due to a prolonged lean patch.
  • Suryakumar Yadav is also experiencing poor batting form, averaging under 15 in T20Is this year with a strike rate slightly above 100.
  • Despite his stellar captaincy record (30 wins out of 38), SKY's place is now under scrutiny due to his individual performance.
  • A PTI report suggests Suryakumar could be next on the selectors' drop list if his form doesn't improve soon.
  • Gambhir's influence emphasizes performance, indicating that even captaincy might not save SKY if he fails to score runs.

Why It Matters: Suryakumar Yadav faces pressure to perform or risk losing his spot, following Shubman Gill's T20 World Cup snub.
