Suryakumar Yadav is now the number-one batsman in the ICC T20I rankings. He has been hitting bowlers all around the park in the ongoing T20 World Cup. Be it 68 runs against South Africa or a half-century against the Netherlands in India's second match of the tournament, he made it look very simple.
Surya is one of the finest T20 batters in the world at the moment. In the 3 matches so far, he has registered scores of 15, 51*, and 68.
"Yadav's 51 not out off 25 balls against the Netherlands in Sydney and a valiant 68 off 40 against South Africa in Perth have helped him overtake New Zealand's Devon Conway and Pakistan's Mohammad Rizwan, who had held the top spot since 4 September this year," ICC said in a release.
