Ahead of Pakistan match on Sunday, Virat Kohli says his partnership with Suryakumar Yadav just works well and he quite enjoys batting with him.
“It’s a great space to be while batting out there in the middle with SKY. He has a lot of fun in the middle because of his skills and ability,” Kohli said on Star Sports ShowCricket Live.
Kohli revealed that Surya doesn’t take much time in gauging how the pitch is behaving and once has a grasp over the conditions, starts playing his game.
“He just asks how the ball is coming from the wicket and then, within 2-3 balls, he gauges the wicket and then gets going,” Kohli said.
The 32-year-old Surya has so far played 34 T20Is and scored 1045 runs at an excellent strike-rate of 176.81 including one century and nine half-centuries.
