Suryakumar Yadav, currently the world's best batter, has adeptly adjusted his game in response to varying pitch conditions at the T20 World Cup. As he looks forward to better surfaces in the Caribbean, Yadav anticipates a return to his aggressive, 360-degree style of play.

India opens their Super 8 campaign against Afghanistan on Thursday, followed by matches against Bangladesh and Australia in St Lucia, and Antigua. The 'spicy' wickets in New York demanded a waiting game from Suryakumar, who scored an unbeaten 50 off 49 balls against the USA, a stark contrast to his typical strike rate.

'If you have been number one for two years, you should adapt to different conditions,' Yadav stated during a media interaction. He emphasized the need for strategic adaptability according to team demands. Despite the challenges, Yadav remains optimistic about playing in familiar Caribbean conditions.
