2nd T20I: 'Never Saw Anyone Hit The Ball Like He Did,' Says Suryakumar Yadav On Ishan Kishan's Fiery 76
T20 World Cup: Indian skipper Suryakumar Yadav said the hosts want their batters to play with freedom and express themselves, hailing Ishan Kishan’s fearless strokeplay as a reflection of the team’s mindset after India beat New Zealand by seven wickets in the second T20I in Raipur on Friday.
Despite having a little help from the dew, India's chase of 209 started out shakily. Sanju Samson went out for 6, Abhishek Sharma made a golden duck, and all of a sudden, the hosts were down to 6 for 2. However, what followed was a mind-blowing counterattack. Ishan Kishan and Suryakumar Yadav put up 122 runs in a mere 48 balls for the third wicket, suddenly turning what had looked like a tough chase into an easy stroll.
Kishan inflicted the majority of the damage with his aggression early on and had 76 from 32 balls - including a 21-ball fifty - when he got out mis-hitting Ish Sodhi for a catch off his own bowling. By that time, damage had already been done.
