In a moment of pride for Indian cricket, T20I skipper Suryakumar Yadav joined the elite list of batters to hit 150 sixes in T20 Internationals. The achievement was made in the opening T20I against Australia at Manuka Oval in Canberra. The right-handed explosive batsman achieved the milestone with two big shots, hinting at the return of his best self. Suryakumar delivered a game-changing knock when India lost a wicket early. While Shubman Gill joined him, he stabilized the innings and attacked the Australian bowlers with forceful stroke play. His power and timing brought back memories of his best times, particularly after a poor stint during the Asia Cup 2025. With his latest achievement, Suryakumar became only the second Indian after Rohit Sharma to hammer 150 or more sixes in T20 Internationals. Rohit leads the chart with 205 sixes, followed by UAE’s Muhammad Waseem (187), New Zealand’s Martin Guptill (173), England’s Jos Buttler (172), and now Suryakumar Yadav with 150.

Prior to this match, Dhoni had 313 T20I runs against Australia. Suryakumar went past that mark, reaching 329 runs against Australia with an average of 36.55 and strike rate of 171.35. His Australians performances were always memorable, and this innings again reinforces his mark as one of India's most reliable performers in T20 cricket. India, courtesy the destructive Suryakumar-Shubman Gill partnership moved to 97 for one in only 9.4 overs before rain again forced play to be halted for the second time. Both the batters looked fully in command, maintaining the pressure on Australian bowlers with their stand. However, the persisting rain forced the officials to call off the game. Suryakumar's form and leadership are a welcome boost for India in the lead-up to the upcoming T20I series. His power to clear ropes at will and hold up the innings when required make him one of the most well-rounded T20 players in the game today.
