Stead confirmed Tim Southee will captain the side for the third and final match at McLean Park on Tuesday night.
Suryakumar Yadav’s 111 against New Zealand on Sunday added to his rising stock as a top T20 batter but veteran pacer Tim Southee said.
He will have to prove himself consistently to become India’s best in the shortest format. Suryakumar struck a breathtaking 111 not out off 51 balls.
And fired India to 191 for six as the visitors outplayed New Zealand by 65 runs in the second T20 International. “There has been a number of great.
T20 players from India, so many great cricketers. Surya has been having a great 12 months and it is for him to continue to do what he has been.
Doing (for over a period of time),” Southee said when asked if Suryakumar is the best ever T20 player from India he has bowled to.
“India has produced so many amazing cricketers not only in T20 format but also across the three formats.
You have got so many players who have played for a long period of time and have achieved so much over a long period of time,” Southee added.
