Prominent Indian batsman Suryakumar Yadav recently stated that while he wants to enjoy himself in red-ball cricket, he believes it will be difficult to return to the Test team. Suryakumar Yadav is still motivated despite the fact that it is now known that people like Sarfaraz Khan, Shreyas Iyer, KL Rahul, and Rajat Patidar are ahead of him in the hierarchy.
The 33-year-old stated that he wished to be among the many individuals who had persevered in order to earn their spot in the longest format.
Suryakumar Yadav declared on the sidelines of the Buchi Babu Invitational tournament, “A lot of people have worked really hard to earn their place and even I want to earn that spot again.”
“I played my first Test match for India. I also sustained an injury after that. Many others were given the chance and went on to succeed as well. They currently deserve that chance,” he continued.

In addition, Suryakumar Yadav expressed his opinion that he is concentrating on everything under his control. He disclosed that his only concern is competing in the Buchi Babu tournament and winning the Duleep Trophy. He is excited to see what will occur at both events.
“From now on, I will automatically play if I have to. I have no control over that. Right now, I can play the Buchi Babu event, move on to the Duleep Trophy, and then watch what transpires. Indeed, I’m eagerly anticipating it. I’m definitely looking forward to some red-ball action with the ten Test matches that are scheduled,” he remarked.
