Suryakumar Yadav Retained for T20 World Cup: Captaincy Trumps Form Woes

  • Suryakumar Yadav retained for T20 World Cup despite poor form, unlike Shubman Gill who was dropped.
  • Yadav's recent T20I stats are concerning, with few significant scores and many single-digit dismissals.
  • His retention is largely attributed to India's perfect winning record under his captaincy in all series.
  • Analysts believe Yadav is just one big innings away from regaining his destructive form, unlike Gill.
  • Yadav himself admitted being "out of runs" but not "out of form," suggesting a mental rather than technical issue.

Why It Matters: Suryakumar Yadav's captaincy success and past dominance secured his T20 World Cup spot despite poor form.
