After his innings, Twitter could not stop hailing him. Check out some of the best reactions to Suryakumar Yadav's blistering innings:








Not to forget, India have already qualified for the T20 World Cup 2022 semi-finals with Netherlands beating South Africa earlier in the morning to cause a big upset. Pakistan then beat Bangladesh to become the second team from Group 2 to qualify for the semifinals of the World Cup. Despite India making it already to the semis, Suryakumar played as if this was an important match and played a blinder of an innings.


The last over of the India innings saw them score 21 runs, including 2 sixes. Who else but Suryakumar Yadav was batting. He smashed 2 sixes and a four, all played with a scoop over fine leg region. That was T20 batting at its best as India finished with 186/5 in 20 overs. India started off the 20th over at 165/4 but then Hardik Pandya got out. The first 3 deliveries did not fetch many before Suryakumar Yadav took over and then finished it off in style.
