Pakistan staff mentor Matthew Hayden mentioned T20 cricket will not be all in regards to the ‘power game’, and Suryakumar Yadav has confirmed that fantastically along with his exhilarating stroke play.

“Power game in T20 cricket is still being explored. Because there is a mixture, and this tournament has shown that really significantly that there is a threat still with the new ball,” Hayden advised reporters.

“Everyone talks about making the most of the powerplay, where the strike rates should be high. We (Pakistan) were criticised about this in the last year’s world cup as well. It was six and seven runs and over. But if you are five down in the power play it doesn’t really matter about your power game because you’re out of momentum and are on the mercy of the game’s momentum,” he added.

“When trying on the match to date. Guys like Suryakumar Yadav is taking part in fantastically, from the center to the late stage. With a competency of all areas of the bottom with entry pictures innovation. Batters like him are threats. So It’s not at all times in regards to the energy.

“As I said I think as cricketers we are all trying to come to grips with when is the power? When’s that foot go down on the floor? When does it decelerate and look to preserve? Lot of the matches have been very close. The tricky balance between preservation of the wickets versus exploration of innovation have been really why I think a lot of these sides that are here now in this tournament are still here,” he added.

Hayden additionally mentioned if energy recreation might have received you matches, then Australia would have received the match.

“Australia’s a great case of that. Got the power to burn but it hasn’t been able to handle the new ball, and then middle order looked vulnerable,” he mentioned.
