Mohammad Kaif gave a statement on his YouTube channel
While talking on his YouTube channel, Kaif said that while chasing the target of 118 runs, the captain should have batted at his usual place, so that he could have finished the match unbeaten. He said that these 30-40 runs could have proved very beneficial for Suryakumar before the T20 World Cup.
Kaif said, ‘Suryakumar Yadav had a chance to bat at number 3 today. Because India had won the match and the powerplay was also good. He had a chance to spend time on the pitch by coming at number 3 and remain unbeaten by scoring 30 or 40 runs. This would have been good for the upcoming matches. He is a strong player and there is no question about his batting ability.
He further said, ‘The question is on his form, because he has been a good player, hence questions are being raised on his form. He had a good chance to bat and remain unbeaten, which would have been good for the remaining T20 matches before the World Cup. One innings can change any player.
