Mumbai, Nov 23 (UNI) Legendary West Indies cricketer Brian Lara feels Mumbai Indians batsman Suryakumar Yadav should have been in the Indian white-ball squad on Australia tour, which gets underway on Friday.
Lara's comments came at the backdrop of an outstanding IPL for Suryakumar in which he scored 480 runs striking at 145.01 in 16 matches.
The right-hander batsman, who has also scored 5,326 runs at an average of 44.01 in 77 first-class matches, played a important role in Mumbai Indians lifting the IPL trophy for the fifth time. However, he didn't find any place in the Indian squad for the Australia tour, which has become a major talking point.
