Former India player Aakash Chopra is not sure whether Suryakumar Yadav can adopt a different approach to return to his form in the
ongoing T20I series against England. He added that the Indian captain’s unconventional batting approach has helped him to be successful so
far.

In a video shared on his YouTube channel ‘Aakash Chopra’, he said, “SKY is not scoring runs and is getting out the same way (playing the scoop shot). Sometimes you feel that SKY will play like that only, which is also okay as long as you are successful. The game is ultimately about success. Till you are successful, your methods are not questioned. In the end, your score, average, strike rate, and how many knocks you have played in a winning cause, which he has played a lot, are seen. He has played those across the world. However, if runs haven’t been scored since 2024, then you ask if there is another way. I don’t know if there is another way or not.”

In the same video, Aakash Chopra also stated that Suryakumar Yadav needs to be among the runs as well.

“You want Suryakumar Yadav to score runs now for sure because if the discussion is repeatedly happening about any player that he is not scoring runs, it’s not a good thing. Personally, I feel the captain should score runs in any case. Tilak should be sent at No. 3 only. The left-right combination hardly matters. You have more left-handers down the order as well. If the ball is not going to turn too much, which it won’t on this pitch, you don’t need a left-right combination. So I would say Tilak is in good form, so use his form. Whoever is in form, send him up the order and let him play more balls,” Aakash Chopra concluded.
