After the retirement of former Indian legend Yuvraj Singh, no batsman has been able to fit in at number four. Till date, India has not got a batsman like Yuvraj who used to bat at number 4. For a moment it seemed that Suryakumar Yadav might be suitable for this post. Surya got a chance to play in the Indian team, but in an important tournament like the World Cup, Surya proved to be a complete flop. In such a situation, even the Sun is not considered good for this situation. Now India has found a player for this position, who can not only replace Surya, but this player is also being called the pro version of Surya.
Explosive batting at number four
Suryakumar Yadav also got a chance as the captain of Team India. Still, Suryakumar Yadav’s name also comes up along with Hardik Pandya in the race to become the next captain of the Indian team in T20 cricket. Now India has found a player who can replace Suryakumar. This player is considered to be the most perfect for the fourth position. Let us tell you that this player is none other than Shashank Singh, the deadly player of Punjab Kings. Even though Punjab had mistakenly placed a bet on Shashank, the way he is batting now has surprised everyone. Shashank was also sent to bat at number four against Kolkata Knight Riders, in this match Shashank saw a storm.
Player performance in this season of IPL
While chasing the huge target of 261 runs against KKR, this explosive batsman played an inning of 68 runs in just 28 balls. During this, 2 fours and 8 brilliant sixes came from his bat. Shashank wreaked havoc on every bowler. Not only against KKR but even before this, Shashank has single-handedly won matches for his team. His game is improving a lot under pressure. Shashank has played 9 matches so far in this IPL season. During this period, 263 runs came from his bat at a strike rate of 182. The special thing is that during this period he has hit 19 fours and 18 sixes. In such a situation, Shashank can be included in the Indian team in place of Suryakumar Yadav. Social media fans are calling Shashank the pro version of Surya.
