Captaincy for Team India is a new challenge and responsibility: Suryakumar Yadav

Meanwhile, India’s stand-in skipper, Suryakumar Yadav, revealed that batting first will be the new challenge for them, as they were hoping to chase down the total, considering the dew factor, late at night. In addition, the 33-year-old cricketer also talks about how the last game gave them confidence ahead of the second T20I.

“We were also looking to chase looking at the amount of dew that was there last night. It’ll be a new challenge for us, to go out there and put a score and then defend it. The last game gave us a lot of confidence, the boys were great, we will carry the same momentum. Captaincy is a new challenge and responsibility, I’m enjoying it. We’re going in with the same team,” Suryakumar Yadav said at the toss.
