As India play England at Adelaide on Thursday to decide the second finalist, they will be pinning their hopes on a marauding middle-order led by Virat Kohli and Suryakumar Yadav. Suryakumar Yadav has brought the heat to the Indian texture, blazing some crucial knocks to propel the Men in Blue to significant numbers on the board.

The middle-order maven has been striking at an imperious rate of more than 190 and his unorthodox approach has drawn praises from various corners of the planet. The Indian captain was also impressed with his batting stance and reserved a few words for one of his star batters who is making his maiden trip to Australia a journey to remember.

Talking about SKY’s bloated arsenal, Rohit said, “I think he's the sort of guy who just doesn't carry any baggage with him -- not his suitcase. He's got a lot of suitcases, honestly speaking. He loves his shopping. But when it comes to carrying the extra pressure, extra baggage, I don't think he has that in him. You can see that when he plays. It's not like he's played a couple of tournaments like that. He's been playing like that for a year now, and you can judge the kind of character he is, and he likes to play like that.”

The skipper further added, “I don't know if you've heard him talk in interviews; he likes to bat in a similar fashion whether we are 10 for 2 or 100 for 2. He likes to go out and express himself, and that's probably the reason he was in the team in the last World Cup.”

He also added a few important words about SKY’s brilliance and the form that he has carried from the 2021 edition of the T20:World Cup. Rohit stated, “Although we didn't have a great World Cup, but looking at what he's done in the entire year from that World Cup onwards, as we say the sky's the limit for him. But yeah, he's shown great maturity, as well, has taken pressure from a lot of the guys the way he plays, and it rubs off on the other side, as well, when they bat around him.”

“He understands he likes playing on the big ground. He hates playing on small grounds. As he told me once, he doesn't like the smaller boundaries, smaller grounds. He can't see the gaps. I believe that he likes to see big gaps, and that's where his strength is," concluded Rohit Sharma.
