Pakistan pace ace Wasim Akram said Suryakumar Yadav has been “a treat to watch” since coming into the India team.
The quick scoring batsman has been on fire lately and provides plenty of entertainment as he has plenty of big shots in his arsenal.
Knowing how to play according to the situation as well makes him even more dangerous as he can hold the fort or accelerate when needed.
“Since he has made it to the Indian squad, he has been a treat to watch,” Wasim was quoted as saying by Cricket Pakistan.
