Playing Domestic Cricket Serves As Good Challenge When Not Playing International Games: SKY
Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy: Ahead of the T20I series opener against South Africa, India skipper Suryakumar Yadav said playing in domestic matches is vital as it provides a good challenge to stay in touch with the game when not playing internationally.
The series against South Africa marks India’s final phase of preparations for defending their title in next year’s T20 World Cup. Players such as Suryakumar, Sanju Samson, Abhishek Sharma, and Shivam Dube are entering the series after a productive period with their respective state teams in the ongoing Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy.
“Regarding playing domestic cricket, according to me, it's important to go back to roots. When we are not playing international games, it serves as a good challenge to go back to domestic circuit and play there, as it is a highly competitive atmosphere. It helps you prepare well, like how Abhishek and others played recently,” Suryakumar said in the pre-match press conference on Monday.
