India ends the series 1-1 after Suryakumar Yadav’s fourth T20I century sets up an easy victory against South Africa

As a T20 batter, Suryakumar Yadav never ceases to amaze. Leading India in the three-match T20 series against South Africa, the 33-year-old produced another outstanding performance in Johannesburg on Thursday. In just 57 innings, he reached his fourth century, matching Rohit Sharma and Glenn Maxwell for the most hundreds in T20Is, helping his team reach 201/7.

India draws even in the three-match series against South Africa thanks to a century off of 56 balls from the captain. Suryakumar has undoubtedly mastered the shorter format, demonstrating a unique capacity to score heavily.

Following his inability to score in the previous game, Yashasvi Jaiswal was also among the runs, hitting 60 off 41 balls. In response, South Africa was dismissed for 95 runs in 13.5 overs, allowing India to win the series by 106 runs. Kuldeep Yadav, a left-arm wrist spinner, achieved career-best T20I figures of 5/17.
