Suryakumar Yadav has been named ICC’s T20I Cricketer of the Year 2022 after a sensational run in the shortest format of the game. Suryakumar Yadav is currently ranked No.1 among T20I batters and has already hit 3 hundreds in a short but entertaining career so far.
Suryakumar Yadav made his debut in T20Is against England in March 2021 and has not looked back since in the game’s newest format. In his first innings, SKY as he is fondly known in cricketing circles, hit 57 off 31 balls against the touring English side and then went from strength to strength.
In 2022, Suryakumar Yadav went to England and smashed 117 off just 55 balls in an unsuccessful run chase for India but that innings helped define his aggressive style of cricket in the times to come. After three consecutive half-centuries against Australia and South Africa last year, Suryakumar Yadav went to the T20 World Cup as the most dangerous batter in T20 Internationals.
In the World Cup, SKY scored 51 not out against Netherlands and then hit a classy 68 against South Africa on a difficult pitch. He followed that up with a breathtaking 111 not out against New Zealand and then started 2023 with a bang, hammering an unbeaten 112 against Sri Lanka.
