It’s difficult to defend when Suryakumar Yadav attacks bowlers, says Parnell

GUWAHATI: Suryakumar Yadav’s incredibly strong and powerful batting has made him one of the most feared T20 batters at the moment, and South African all-rounder Wayne Parnell says the bowlers will have to stay strong and focussed while tackling him.
Surya slammed a 33-ball 50 in India’s eight-wicket win over South Africa on a tricky track in the series-opener.
“Personally, from what I’ve watched in the last couple of months, I think he’s probably the best T20 batters at the moment. He scores 360-degree, which is very difficult for bowlers to defend,” Parnell said on the eve of the second and penultimate T20I of the series.
“It’s about being strong and focussed on each ball. He’s allowed to play good shots, but the other day he was lucky as well. He’s certainly a guy whom I enjoyed watching the last couple of months. He’s certainly playing good cricket,” Parnell said.
