India had defeated Australia by 2 wickets in the first T20 match. If India wins today’s match again, it will take a significant lead in the series. Captain Suryakumar Yadav has shown Jauhar in this T20 series against Australia. Suryakumar Yadav had scored 80 runs in the first match. Even before this, Suryakumar had batted in T20 format. When he played innings of 83 and 61 runs in the T20 series against West Indies. If Suryakumar Yadav scores 50 runs in today’s match also, he will become the first Indian cricketer to score 50 runs in 4 consecutive T20 matches. If Suryakumar Yadav scores 50 runs in today’s match, he will surpass even Virat Kohli. Virat has scored 3 consecutive half-centuries in T20. At the same time, Rohit Sharma has scored half-centuries in 2 consecutive T20 matches.
Suryakumar Yadav also has a chance today to score 2000 runs in his name in T20 matches. If Suryakumar Yadav scores 79 runs against Australia today, he will be successful in achieving this feat also. He will also become the lowest batsman to score 2000 runs in 52 innings of T20. Earlier, Pakistan’s Mohammad Rizwan and Babar Azam had scored 2000 runs in 52-52 innings. That means today Suryakumar has a chance to be at par with Rizwan and Babar Azam. This is Suryakumar Yadav’s point, but the big question is that with the way it is raining in South India, will the match be held today or not? So let us tell you. According to the Meteorological Department, the chances of rain in Thiruvananthapuram today are 25 percent. It has been raining lightly here for the last few days. That means there are very few chances of rain today and even if it rains, there are no chances of the match getting canceled completely.
It has been better for Team India to win the first match of the T20 series because Australia has recently won the title of World Champion. Australia had given India a target of 209 runs in the first T20 match. These runs are a lot in T20 format, but India achieved the target with 19.5 overs i.e. 1 ball remaining. However, 8 wickets had fallen during this period and at one point it seemed that India might face difficulty in scoring 209 runs.
