In the T20 World Cup 2024, the pair of Virat Kohli and Suryakumar Yadav did not get to see much of their magic because both of them could not spend much time together on the crease at the same time, but in the last 3 years, many such matches have been seen where both these batsmen have targeted the opposing bowlers together. Virat has been a part of Indian cricket for a long time but Surya has been in Team India for only 3 years. In such a short time, his pairing with Kohli has been very good but this has not happened just like that, rather there is an aspect behind it, about which Surya has now told the whole world.

After Team India's memorable victory in the final played in Barbados, Suryakumar Yadav spoke about Virat Kohli's impact on him in an interview. Surya made his debut in Team India under Virat's captaincy in March 2021 and then played the T20 World Cup for the first time in the same year. The two had a good relationship since their debut and Surya also believes this. Surya told that ever since his debut, he understood that he would often be batting with Virat in the middle order and in such a situation he adopted a special method.

Surya trains with Kohli

Talking to the English newspaper Indian Express, Surya revealed that keeping in mind batting with Virat, he had already decided that keeping himself fit is the most important thing because Virat is far ahead in this matter and puts all his energy on the field.

Surya told that Kohli often plays shots in the gap and then runs fast for 2 runs and if he has to bat with good understanding with this star batsman, then he will have to be as fit as him.

Surya said that to do this, he also made a special request to Team India's trainer Soham Desai. Surya made it clear that whenever Virat Kohli has a session in the gym, his session should also be held during the same time so that he can motivate himself.

Surya said that many times due to mental or physical fatigue, one does not feel like training in the gym, but by watching Virat training, he will also be able to motivate himself for training.

Showed his flair in the final

Obviously, there is something special about the pair, that is why Virat and Surya had a special contribution in Team India becoming the world champion in the final. While Virat played a strong innings after losing wickets early and played an important role in reaching a big score, Surya showed his fitness in the last over and took an amazing match-winning catch of David Miller and made the team champion.
