Suryakumar Yadav Words For Rohit Sharma Ahead Of Border-Gavaskar Trophy

Under the captaincy of Suryakumar Yadav, India will face South Africa in the first T20I of the three-match T20I series in Durban. South Africa will give a tough challenge to the Indian team due to their quality bowling and powerful hitters.

India’s poor performance at home against New Zealand has put Rohit Sharma and Gautam Gambhir under pressure. New Zealand’s rare series whitewash of India right before the Australia tour has raised questions about the strategy of Indian Cricket management.

India is now in second place in the World Test Championship, with three straight losses allowing Australia to take the top spot. India must win at least four matches in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy to keep their chances of reaching the WTC final. But with their recent form, this will be a tough challenge for Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma’s team.

Right before the five-match Test series against Australia, Suryakumar Yadav showed his support for the Test and ODI captain of India, Rohit Sharma.

“In sports, wins and losses keep happening. Everybody works hard, everybody works hard to win. Sometimes, it works and sometimes it doesn’t. I have learnt this from him (Rohit) only – in life, being balanced is important. I have never seen his character change, whether good or bad times. I have seen him grow as a lot as a player and as a leader.”

“A leader wants to define how the team wants to play the format. A captain always wants to win, but a leader defines a style.”

Mumbai Indians have kept both Suryakumar and Rohit for IPL 2025, and they will play under captain Hardik Pandya.

India’s squad for the Border-Gavaskar Trophy

Rohit Sharma (C), Jasprit Bumrah (VC), Yashasvi Jaiswal, Abhimanyu Easwaran, Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli, KL Rahul, Rishabh Pant (WK), Sarfaraz Khan, Dhruv Jurel (WK), R Ashwin, R Jadeja, Mohd. Siraj, Akash Deep, Prasidh Krishna, Harshit Rana, Nitish Kumar Reddy, Washington Sundar.
