In the recent T20I outing against Sri Lanka, Suryakumar Yadav once again played a jaw-dropping knock of 112 off 51 balls. The batter hit nine gigantic sixes and seven boundaries to register his third century in T20Is. The knock helped India gain a 91 run victory over the Lankans and clinch the series 2-1. 

Team India head coach Rahul Dravid interviewed SKY after the match and did not hesitate from showering all his praise on the phenomenal batter. 

Dravid lavishes praise on SKY

“Surya, exceptional. The form that you have been in – every time I think I have not seen a better T20 inning, you show us something even better." 

"It’s incredible out there just the guys who watch you practice as well just to watch you train. Obviously, I don’t think you are playing some of these shots in training but even in training when we are throwing the ball to you when we watch you train one of the things that are really noticeable is how obviously when you are training for this format is how much creative you are with the shots that your playing."

"All we can say is Surya it is a pleasure working with you just your personality and what you bring to the team you are always smiling and keeping everyone’s spirits up I think that’s a great thing to have in a team we appreciate that and long may it continue and hopefully we get to see a lot more innings like this in the future."
