Suryakumar Yadav who is also known as SKY, who’s talent is such that promising talents have started drawing leaves from Suryakumar’s book of batting, and wicketkeeper-batter Jitesh Sharma is doing the same behind the scenes.
Jitesh told ‘The Indian Express’ –
“I am just trying to observe Suryakumar Yadav. Main unke jitna skilfull nahi hoon (I am not as skillful as him).
“But I am watching his videos on how he manipulates the field, how he plays those risk-free shots. I am just trying to learn from his batting. Everyone has a different skill set. I am just trying to explore my game and make it 360.
Jitesh produced a strong show in the 2022 edition, where he accumulated 234 runs from 12 innings at a staggering strike-rate of 163.63. He then delivered an equally strong performance in the 2022 Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy, where his strike-rate spiked to 175.
