Cricket superstar Suryakumar Yadav also scored a century
The fans’ expectations from the three-match T20I series against Sri Lanka came to fruition. The series witnessed high voltage variations.

In this match played at the Saurashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Rajkot, India defeated Sri Lanka by 91 runs. Indian cricket superstar Suryakumar Yadav also entertained all the fans by scoring a century in this victory journey.
India unbeaten at home for 14 years
Team India has played a total of six series against Sri Lanka in the last 14 years and won five of them. Only once did Sri Lanka manage to seal the series draw. Although the momentum was evident from the way Sri Lanka performed in the last match, the whole picture changed as soon as they reached Rajkot. Suryakumar Yadav was worried about this changed picture. In the third match of the series, Surya single-handedly took Sri Lanka on top by playing like a champion.
India won despite Ishan-Hardik’s failure
However, in this match, India scored 228 runs for 5 wickets after winning the toss and batting first. But these magical numbers are going to mask the persistent weaknesses in the Indian batting. Captain Hardik Pandya himself could not leave an impact with the bat in this series. He scored only 45 runs in 3 innings of 3 matches. At the same time, opener Ishan Kishan’s bat also remained quiet. He added only 40 runs in this series. Both these players are considered to be the strongest players of the Indian team in the T20 format. Failure of these two in the entire series in such a situation is not a good sign at all.
