Suryakumar Yadav’s recent ODI performances have been a cause for concern for Team India, with the batter failing to score in the first two fixtures of the ongoing three-match series against Australia. Former cricketer and commentator Saba Karim has commented on Yadav’s mysterious form, given his impressive T20I record and lackluster performances in ODIs.
In a disappointing turn of events, Suryakumar Yadav, Team India’s dynamic batter, has failed to make his mark in the ongoing three-match ODI series against Australia, bagging golden ducks in the first two fixtures.
