Former australia

Former Australia cricketer Mark Waugh weighed on Suryakumar Yadav’s performance (49 runs off 50 deliveries) in the first ODI against Australia in Mohali on Friday, saying the basics of playing the white-ball game remain the same and the star batter has the tools to do well in the 50-over format of the game.

"It's not about those ducks. All those things that people have been talking about, stuff like 'Is he just a T20 player? Is he good enough to be a 50-overs player?'. He sure is, you don't lose your talent overnight. There are similar basics in T20 cricket and 50-over cricket. Hit the ball, run hard, put the bad ball away, he can do all those things really well," Mark Waugh told JioCinema.
