Indian captain for the T20I series against Australia, Suryakumar Yadav smashed a scintilating 32-ball half-century at the Dr Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium, Visakhapatnam. Bowling first, the Indian bowlers had a poor performance with Australia managing to post their second-highest T20I total of 208 against India.
