IND V NZ, 2nd T20I: Suryakumar's Exceptional Innings Was The Difference, Says NZ Pacer Tim Southee
Senior New Zealand pacer Tim Southee praised India's in-form batter Suryakumar Yadav for shining in the visitors' 65-run win in the second T20I at Bay Oval, calling his unbeaten 111 an 'exceptional innings' which eventually made a difference to the first innings total.
On a sluggish pitch where almost all Indian batters found it tough to time the ball, Suryakumar, the top-ranked T20I batter, hit 11 fours and seven sixes all over the park at a strike-rate of 217.65 to be unbeaten on 111 off 51 balls, his second T20I century and took India to 191/6 in 20 overs.
