Former Indian spinner and commentator Ravi Ashwin has asserted that there are possibilities to see the former Indian T20I captain Suryakumar Yadav back in the squad if he does well in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy.
Speaking on his YouTube channel, Ashwin has insisted that it’s quite tough for him to be back as an Indian captain, but there are good chances of Surya making a comeback to the Indian T20I side, adding that we cannot close the door on anyone.
“Where is he going to play? If he shows good form in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy, he can make a comeback, why not? Captaincy is difficult right now. He should make a comeback as a batter. He has two tournaments now. He needs to perform in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy and then in the IPL. We cannot close the door on anyone. But the way he was removed from the team, I really doubt it,” Ravi Ashwin said on his YouTube channel.
Furthermore, Ashwin also shared his comments on the forthcoming three-match ODI series against England, which is scheduled to start on Tuesday, July 14, at Edgbaston, Birmingham. He went on to state that he is eager to look at Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, Kuldeep Yadav and Jasprit Bumrah’s form.
“The big thing is that Kuldeep and Bumrah will come back. I’m waiting to see Bumrah’s form and bowling because that is very important for Indian cricket. That is a big boost,” he added
“Virat and Rohit will play with their experience, but Bumrah and Kuldeep are huge factors. Kuldeep has not been treated very well. I really hope he gets treated very well. Varun Chakaravarthy is not there, so I hope they get to use him as an attacking option,” he concluded.
