Champions Trophy: Team India has to play Champions Trophy this year for which the team can be announced soon. Team India's T20 captain Suryakumar Yadav does not seem to be getting a chance in the Champions Trophy this time.
The Champions Trophy will be played between 19 February and 9 March. His performance has been poor for some time now, due to which this player can replace him in the Champions Trophy.
Suryakumar Yadav may be dropped
Let us tell you that ever since Suryakumar Yadav became the captain of Team India, he has been in poor form. Team India is winning matches under his captaincy but his bat is silent. Surya also got a chance in the World Cup last time but his performance was very poor but still he had a chance of getting a chance under the captaincy of Rohit Sharma. But now, looking at his performance in Vijay Hazare, he is not likely to get a place in the Champions Trophy.
Suryakumar's flop performance in Vijay Hazare
Suryakumar Yadav has played 4 matches in Vijay Hazare Trophy this season so far, in which he has scored only 38 runs in 4 innings at an average of 9.50. He has not been able to open his account in the last two innings. His highest score in this Vijay Hazare tournament has been 20 runs. Surya's record in List A has not been good, but despite that he was given a chance in the World Cup.
Rishabh can get a chance in Champions Trophy
Rishabh Pant can be given a chance in place of Suryakumar Yadav. Rishabh's performance in ODIs has been good, due to which he can be given a chance. Rishabh could not play in the World Cup due to an accident. But now Rishabh Pant is completely fit, hence he has been given a chance in place of Suryakumar.
