“I don’t want to be…”: Suryakumar Yadav wants different role in Indian team

India captain Suryakumar Yadav, whose captaincy skills were on display during the first and second T20I against Sri Lanka, stated that he wants to classify himself as a leader and not as a captain.

Suryakumar’s captaincy skills were even recognized and praised by former India all-rounder Irfan Pathan after the first T20I. However, the 33-year old wants to be more than a captain in the T20I team.

 I don’t want to be a captain; I want to be a leader. That’s it. It felt good to see such good support here and in this country,” Suryakumar said in a video posted by BCCI on X.

Despite him wanting a different role, Surya’s stint as T20I captain has indeed began on a positive note as under his leadership, the Men in Blue have clinched the 3-match T20I series against Sri Lanka by taking an unassailable lead of 2-0.
