Robin Uthappa believes Suryakumar Yadav should bat at No. 3 in India’s T20I lineup to regain form and stability. The former India batter feels consistency in position will unlock his true potential.

Australia won the toss and opted to bowl first against India in the opening T20I at Manuka Oval, Canberra. Indian captain Suryakumar Yadav said he wanted to bat first as the wicket may slow down later.

Captain Suryakumar Yadav roared back to form with a 24-ball 39 in the abandoned first T20I, and his humongous 125-metre six off Josh Hazlewood will stay in memory for long

Suryakumar has become only the second Indian to achieve this feat. Overall, he’s only the fifth player to join this exclusive club in the shortest format of the game. That puts him right up there with the best of the lot.
