Virat Kohli's comment after Suryakumar Yadav's swashbuckling knock stands out among rest

Indian batter Suryakumar Yadav played one of the best knocks of his life during his team's final Super 12 match of the ongoing T20 World Cup 2022 on Sunday. While playing against Zimbabwe, the 32-year-old smashed an unbeaten 61 off just 25 balls, including six boundaries and four sixes. Suryakumar played shots all across the park, proving once again why he is called the new Mr. 360. His incredible innings helped India post a mammoth total of 186/5 in 20 overs. India eventually won the match by a huge margin of 71 runs as Zimbabwe were bowled out for 115 runs. After the match, Suryakumar took to his official Instagram handle to post a few pictures from the match. "No better feeling," Suryakumar wrote in the caption of the post. Former India captain Virat Kohli dropped a comment on the post, saying "Alag level (Different level)."
