Team India player Prasidh Krishna came forward to applaud the current T20I captain, Suryakumar Yadav's captaincy skills in the five-match series against Australia.

After the game, Prasidh Krishna noted that Suryakumar's leadership is a lot like his batting, and the stand-in skipper has complete faith in his men to follow their instincts during a game. He mentioned:

I think it shows in the way he (Suryakumar) bats is very similar in his captaincy as well. He trusts his players, backs all of us to do what we want to do and he's there right behind us to support if there's anything going wrong. That's been the name of the game and then that's the word around freedom, go and execute your plans out there and everyone trusts each other in the team.
