India vs Australia T20 series: Suryakumar Yadav, who will captain India in their five-match T20 series against Australia, is closing in on a major T20 International record to become the fastest batsman to score 2000 runs in the limited overs format. The 33-year-old is 159 runs shy of shattering the record. 

Yadav, who will lead a squad with just three members of the team that lost the ICC World Cup 2023 final, has 1841 runs to his name from 50 innings at an average of 46.02 and a strike-rate of 172.70 with three hundreds and 15 fifties to his name. Additionally, if he manages to score 159 or more in the next five T20I matches, he will surpass Virat Kohli to become the fastest Indian batsman to score 2000 T20I runs.
