Former Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) chairman Ramiz Raja feels Team India ought to unleash white-ball specialist Suryakumar Yadav through the four-match Test sequence towards Australia, beginning with the primary recreation in Nagpur from February 9. While highlighting England’s aggressive model of cricket within the longest format of the sport, which has earned them plenty of reward, Ramiz steered that Suryakumar will deliver within the x-factor because of his fearless batting strategy. The 32-year-old is but to make his Test debut for the staff.

“India should play Suryakumar Yadav as he will generate pace in the match. India have named a few T20 specialists in their squad for the first two Tests. It’s a good move as fans appreciate entertaining brand of cricket in Test match nowadays. Look at the way how England played against Pakistan. They scored 300-400 in one day. So, Suryakumar will inject pace into the game, and India can benefit from this by building pressure (on Australia),” Ramiz mentioned in his YouTube channel.

Suryakumar, who’s presently the no. 1 batter in T20I rankings, has been a revelation for the Indian cricket staff in restricted overs cricket.

While a number of consultants have tipped him to turn into an all-format participant sooner or later, the closest he has come to the red-ball recreation is his inclusion within the Test squad for the Border-Gavaskar Trophy.

With Rishabh Pant lacking out on the Test sequence because of the accidents sustained within the accident, the onus may be on Suryakumar to play the aggressor, if he will get the possibility.

India are more likely to subject three spinners, together with Ravichandran Ashwin and the returning Ravindra Jadeja, however Sharma didn’t reveal the beginning line-up.
