Suryakumar Yadav has so far scored 346 runs against South Africa in T20 International.
While on one hand the Indian team is going to tour Australia under the captaincy of Rohit Sharma to play a 5-match Test series, on the other hand, under the captaincy of Suryakumar Yadav, Team India has reached South Africa to play a 4-match T20 series. While some new players have got a chance in the Indian team for this series, the players who performed well in the T20 series against Bangladesh have managed to retain their places. Under the captaincy of Suryakumar Yadav, the Indian team has seen excellent performance on the field in T20 Internationals so far, but it is not going to be an easy task for them to beat South Africa at their own home, hence all eyes are on the performance of captain Surya. She is also going to survive and will have a chance to leave behind both Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli simultaneously.
Suryakumar Yadav will leave both of them behind as soon as he scores 84 runs.
The record of scoring the most runs for India in the T20 International matches played so far between India and South Africa is in the name of Rohit Sharma, who has scored a total of 429 runs in this format against the African team. While Virat Kohli is at second place in this list with 394 runs, Suryakumar Yadav is at third place with 346 runs in just 7 matches. In such a situation, if Surya manages to score 84 more runs with the bat in the first T20 match of this series to be played at the Kingsmead ground in Durban, then he will leave both the players behind together. Suryakumar Yadav has so far scored 346 runs against South Africa in T20 International with an excellent average of 57.66, which includes four half-centuries along with one century.
Till now the Indian team has had the upper hand
So far, 9 bilateral series have been played between India and South Africa in T20 International, out of which Team India managed to win 4 while the African team managed to win only 2 series. Three series ended in a draw. The Indian team played a three-match T20 series in South Africa at the end of 2023, which ended in a 1-1 draw.
