He was already playing only T20Is for the side.<\/p>\n<p>Suryakumar\u2019s poor batting form played a key role in the tough decision. His T20I average dropped below 26, and sometimes it dropped to 12.84. The right-handed batter also failed miserably in the IPL 2026 as well with the Mumbai Indians. He scored just 270 runs in 13 matches at an average of 20.76.<\/p>\n<p>There have also been concerns about a wrist injury affecting his trademark 360-degree batting style. However, Suryakumar\u2019s India career is not completely over. The selectors have reportedly kept the door open, but the 35-year-old will need to score runs consistently in domestic cricket to force his way back into contention.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"suryakumar_yadav_eyes_india_return_as_he_continues_hard_work\">Suryakumar Yadav eyes India return as he continues hard work<\/h2>\n<p>Well, SKY is already focused on forcing his way back into the Indian team.
