NEW DELHI: Suryakumar Yadav finally roared back to form with a sizzling knock in the third T20I against the West Indies at Providence Stadium in Guyana on Tuesday. In the process, the top ranked T20I batter also completed 100 sixes in T20Is, third Indian to do so.

Suryakumar, who endured a terrible run on the Caribbean tour, back to doing what he does best as he scored his first fifty of the limited-overs leg and produced a match-winning knock when India were on the verge of losing the series.

India chased down a 160-run target with utmost ease to stay alive in the five-match series.
SKY, as he is fondly known as, took the Windies bowlers to the cleaners from the word go during his whirlwind knock of 83 off just 44 balls studded with 10 fours and 4 sixes.
Surya also equalled his record of hitting fastest fifty as he raced to his 14th T20I half-century off just 23 balls.
Indian skipper Rohit Sharma and star batter Virat Kohli are the Indian batters to have smashed 100 sixes in the shortest format of the game.
Rohit atop the list with 182 sixes to his name while Virat has 117 under his belt.
