“It is not too different [batting at No.5], I have been batting at all positions and I am really flexible, so where ever the team management decides and wants me to bat, I am really flexible to bat at any position and really happy with the way things are going right now,” said Suryakumar during a virtual press conference on the eve of the second ODI here.
The Mumbaikar also mentioned that he also does a lot of net sessions at home to keep himself match-ready. “Back home, I do a lot of net sessions. The motivation to play for the county comes automatically,” he said.
When asked whether he would play the Ranji Trophy for Mumbai if not selected for Tests against Sri Lanka, the batter said: “Obviously, I have always loved playing red-ball cricket because that is where it all started for me.”
