Suryakumar Yadav, the Indian batsman known for his innovative and aggressive batting, has set the cricket world on fire! In a recent match against Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB), Surya not only smashed a blistering half-century but also achieved a remarkable milestone: reaching 7,000 T20 career runs.
His knock left everyone speechless. Surya scored a half-century in a mind-boggling 17 balls, finishing with a score of 52 runs from just 19 deliveries. This included a flurry of powerful shots – 5 fours and a staggering 4 sixes! But the runs weren’t all that made this innings special.
By reaching 7,000 runs during this whirlwind knock, Surya became the 9th Indian batsman to achieve this feat. But that’s not all! He also broke records previously held by big names like Rohit Sharma and Suresh Raina.
Suryakumar Yadav is now the fourth-fastest Indian batsman to reach the 7,000-run mark in T20 cricket. He achieved this incredible milestone in just his 249th innings, surpassing both Rohit Sharma (258th) and Suresh Raina (251st).
However, the record for the fastest 7,000 T20 runs by an Indian batsman still belongs to KL Rahul, who reached it in a remarkable 197th innings. Virat Kohli follows closely behind at number two, having achieved the feat in his 212th innings.
Suryakumar Yadav’s performance is a testament to his explosive batting style and his ability to score runs quickly.
