‘Want to play for India in all three formats’: Suryakumar Yadav
The Indian T20I captain recently said that he wants to play for India in all three formats and playing in the Buchi Babu tournament will give him good practice.
“I want to play for India in all three formats. Playing in Buchi Babu will give me good practice for the red-ball tournaments this season” Suryakumar was quoted as saying by the Times of India.
The Mumbai batter has scored 5628 runs in 82 first-class matches at an average of 46.32 with the help of 14 centuries and 29 fifties. He also played one test match for India in Nagpur against Australia and scored only 8 runs on debut.

Recently, Indian selector Ajit Agarkar said that the management and BCCI haven’t discussed Suryakumar’s name for the ODI squad as there is some real quality available in the middle order.
“No, we haven’t discussed Surya (for ODIs) at this point. There is some real quality through that middle order. So at this point Surya is a T20I player,” Agarkar said in a press conference.
