He said that Suryakumar is still adjusting to the pace of 50-over cricket. He will get better with experience.

‘I am not too worried about Suryakumar’:-

Dravid said- I am not much worried about Suryakumar. He lost his wicket against two good balls. One thing about Surya is that he is learning a bit about the 50-over game.

The T20 game is a bit different. Dravid further said- Even though he did not play for India for a long time, he played IPL for almost ten years in T20 cricket.

It’s like international cricket. He has played a lot of cricket. Also played high-pressure T20 matches but in ODI cricket there is no equivalent tournament in domestic cricket, you have to play Vijay Hazare Trophy and all that.

Even though he has played a lot of T20 cricket, I think he has not played a lot of ODI cricket.

We just need to give it some time and be patient. We will definitely see a good performance from him which is great for the team.
