Promoted As T20I Captain Over Hardik , What Surya Said On His Leadership

India's newly-crowned T20I captain, Suryakumar Yadav, was given the team's leadership responsibility on Thursday. Though it looked like Hardik Pandya would get the role, having been Team India's vice-captain under Rohit Sharma for a long time, the all-rounder's repeated fitness issues prompted the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) selection committee to look for an alternative. After Surya was named the team's skipper in the shortest format, an old video of his emerged on social media in which the new 'captain' could be seen talking about his mindset as a leader.

Star Sports shared the clip on social media, in which Suryakumar spoke about his captaincy Matra. The video is from 2023 when Surya had led the Indian team to a 4-1 triumph against Australia and then a 1-1 draw against South Africa in the shortest format.

"I am really enjoying this new role, enjoying spending time with everybody and we all have played together a lot either in franchise cricket or in state cricket, so it's not that difficult to understand their strengths and weaknesses. And off the field we also spend so much time so the rapport we have on the field become very good," he said in the video.

"It's important for me to keep things simple, I am a process-oriented man, I like to keep things simple and that's what I try and tell everybody that try and keep things really simple, don't try and be a different version of yourself," he added.

Shubman Gill who led the Men in Blue in the recently concluded T20I series against Zimbabwe, will be Suryakumar Yadav's deputy in the forthcoming three-match 20-over series against Sri Lanka.

Meanwhile, star India all-rounder Hardik Pandya, who last led the team was not given the responsibility to lead the side.

Pacers Arshdeep Singh, Mohammed Siraj, and wicketkeeper-batter Rishabh Pant were also called in the T20I squad after they were given rest for India's tour of Zimbabwe.

The India's tour of Sri Lanka will be starting from July 27 onwards. The tour will kick-start with a three-match T20I series, followed by a three-match ODI series, which will start from August 1.

Sanju Samson's Act Minutes After T20 World Cup Selection Wins Hearts

April 8, 2008. Sanju Samson, then a skinny 14-year-old, curled on the bed in his hotel room, watched Kolkata Knight Riders' Brendon McCullum hammering a 73-ball 158 against Royal Challengers Bengaluru in the first-ever IPL match. That drizzly evening in Kottayam, a town in central Kerala, changed his heart. Forever. Sanju reshuffled his career dream, from wanting to become a civil servant to entering the elite world of a top-flight cricketer. "Sanju always recollects that day, which gave him the dream of reaching that league of top players one day," said former Kerala player Raiphi Vincent Gomez, also a close friend of the wicketkeeper batter. But merely having a dream will not take anyone to the top of their profession, more so in sports. Sanju then had oodles of determination too to walk down his chosen path. Biju George, the former India women's cricket team's fielding coach and the early mentor of the Kerala player, saw that brightly flickering flame inside...
