The former Indian spinner feels that the 5-match T20 series will highly test Suryakumar Yadav's leadership capabilities considering the previous teams he faced earlier. India is hosting the England team for the white series comprising a long T20I one, with the three-match ODI series coming up next. Suryakumar will be leading the young Indian brigade in the T20Is, with Axar Patel as his deputy. The first T20 match will be played today at the Eden Gardens. Speaking about SKY, Ashwin reminds that earlier India faced Bangladesh and later South Africa, who had rested their main players. Compared to that, England seems to not compromise with their squad. Discuusing on his YouTube show "Ash ki Baat," "Bangladesh was a weak team, while South Africa fielded a second-string pace attack, although their batting was excellent. We played against Bangladesh, but they are no match for India. I think that series was a mismatch. I think that series should not be considered a true reflection of our strength. Against South Africa, they also rested many of their key players. They rested their bowlers for the Test series, and our batters capitalized by scoring big totals."
