Despite continuous flops, Kapil came out in support of Surya, reprimanded for comparing him with Samson

Suryakumar Yadav ducks: The recently concluded 3-match ODI series against Australia has been nothing less than a nightmare for Indian player Suryakumar Yadav. In all the matches of this series, Surya returned to the pavilion without opening the account on the very first ball. Since then, he has also been facing a lot of criticism on social media. Meanwhile, world-winning captain former Indian player Kapil Dev, while defending Surya, reprimanded those who compared him with Sanju Samson. Let us tell you what he said

Kapil Dev while talking to a news channel said that the cricketer who has played so well will always get more chances. Don’t compare Surya with Sanju Samson, it doesn’t seem right. If Sanju goes through a bad phase, you will talk about someone else. This should not happen, if the team management has decided to pick Suryakumar Yadav, then he should be given more chances. Yes, people will talk, give their opinion, but ultimately it is the management’s decision.

The former captain said that it is very easy to talk after the match is over. Maybe the reason behind sending Suryakumar to number 7 is to give him a chance as a finisher. This is not a new thing in ODIs. This has happened many times. Yes, at times it can happen that a batsman’s confidence will be shaken if he is pulled down the order. But, it is up to the player to tell his captain that I can handle myself at the top of the order. The coach and the captain must have taken a conscious decision. It is known that in the third match against Australia, the team management fielded Surya at number 7 instead of batting at number four.

Please tell that Suryakumar Yadav is going through the worst phase of ODI format in his cricket career. He could not open the account in any of the matches played against the Kangaroo team in Mumbai, Visakhapatnam and Chennai. After this fans and cricket experts are considering Sanju Samson better than Surya. On the previous day, former Indian team player Wasim Jaffer had also talked about giving Sanju a chance in place of Suryakumar Yadav in ODIs.
