The India captain hasn't been in great form in T20Is and hasn't been able to register a 50+ score so far in 2025

India batsman Shreyas Iyer is in stable condition and recovering well from spleen injury, Twenty20 captain Suryakumar Yadav says. Iyer suffered a lacerated spleen on Saturday during India’s victory over Australia in their third one-day international (ODI) when he fell awkwardly while making a catch.

Suryakumar Yadav broke a massive record in T20I cricket during the first T20I against Australia at Manuka Oval in Canberra. As soon as Surya hit his second six of the innings, he leapfrogged Martin Guptil in a very rare list that features great names like Rohit Sharma and Jos Buttler.

The latest injury setback for Shreyas Iyer puts his participation in South Africa ODIs, starting from November 30 at home in doubt.

Former India cricketer Abhishek Nayar warns of intense scrutiny on Suryakumar Yadav's poor form ahead of the Australia T20I series. Suryakumar hasn't been in good form ever since being appointed as a full-time T20I captain.

Former Indian cricketer Aakash Chopra has lauded Suryakumar Yadav for his exceptional stroke play in the first T20I against Australia, describing how the Indian captain virtually toyed with the bowlers. Chopra pointed out that Suryakumar’s unorthodox range of shots often forces bowlers to change their plans, only to end up falling into his trap.

In a rain-marred contest at Canberra, India skipper Suryakumar Yadav lit up the night with a couple of towering sixes - enough to take him into an elite club of T20I power-hitters, becoming only the second Indian after Rohit Sharma to reach 150 sixes in the format.

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.
