‘The cliche of Mr. 360…….’ – England legend lauds Suryakumar Yadav’s T20 brilliance

Former England cricketer Nasser Hussain heaps praise on Suryakumar Yadav and is excited to watch him in the T20 World Cup 2024, slated to take place in May and June in the West Indies and USA. Notably, Rohit Sharma and Co. suffered a 10-wicket loss against England in the T20 World Cup 2022 semi-final clash in Adelaide. However, they will be looking to turn things around.

The former England skipper feels Suryakumar Yadav is one of the players to watch out for in the shortest format of the game. In addition, the legendary cricketer accepted that the middle-order batter is not in form in ODI cricket, but it was absolutely fun to watch him in the T20I game.

“The person for the world to watch out for at the moment in T20 is Suryakumar Yadav. I mean, the bloke is a freak. The cliche of Mr. 360, but some of the shots he plays… and he is a bit of a freak because, in fifty-overs cricket, he doesn’t quite know when to go, when not to go, what to do. But in T20 cricket, he absolutely knows what to do every single time almost, and it’s a fun game, T20 cricket and watching SKY, that is absolutely fun,” Nasser Hussain said on Apex Cricket Council.

I think their SA20 competition has really elevated some of their players: Nasser Hussain

Meanwhile, the well-renowned cricket commentator also predicts who can win the T20 World Cup 2024. The great cricketer feels South Africa is extremely good in the shortest format of the game, and they have elevated players, which can help them win the marquee event, which is slated to take place with a few months to go.

“I think their (domestic) SA20 competition has really elevated some of their players and they have now got that depth and the class and that talent. I don’t know where he is with his injury at the moment, but someone like Anrich Nortje is what they were missing maybe in those vital games, towards the end of the World Cup,” he added further.
