Just think, is it possible in the game of cricket that there are 15 players in the fielding team? One wicketkeeping, one bowling, and the remaining 13 players fielding? Apart from this, there should be 5 people in the crowd of spectators who should be given the responsibility of catching the catch. These 5 people should be given training in advance to catch catches and the batsman should not know where those 5 people sitting in the audience are. Along with this, the rule should also be that 3 fielders can be placed outside the boundary line and between the stands of the spectators. If he catches the catch outside the boundary too, then it will be valid. In one over, the batsman cannot hit a boundary on every ball. There should be a gap of one ball between two boundaries. You will say, how ridiculous these rules are going to seem.

In fact, we also believe that all these rules are ridiculous, but understand the problem of the bowlers, at this time there is such a player in world cricket that if these rules are not made and his day happens, he will destroy everything. That player is Surya Kumar Yadav. Who destroyed the bowling of Royal Challengers Bangalore at Wankhede Stadium on Tuesday. Now if these rules are not made, then it is impossible to stop Suryakumar Yadav. Keep in mind that these changes in the rules are recommended only for Suryakumar Yadav or if any other batsman like him comes in the future. For the rest of the batsmen, the existing rules will continue.

How to stop Suryakumar Yadav from scoring runs?
The biggest question in the world of cricket right now is how to stop Suryakumar Yadav from scoring runs. Faf du Plessis is saying that Suryakumar is the best batsman in the world, it is difficult to stop him when he is scoring runs. World's number one T20 bowler Rashid Khan is saying that brother Suryakumar Yadav, you only tell where to throw the ball.
Although Suryakumar Yadav's batting style is like this, this story has become very hot after Mumbai Indians and Royal Challengers Bangalore. Chasing the target of 200 runs, Suryakumar Yadav played an inning of 83 runs in 35 balls. This inning included 7 fours and 6 sixes. Surya's strike rate was around 240. Thanks to his innings, Mumbai won the match 21 balls earlier.
Understand Surya's batting style
Under the current rules, you set a certain type of field to prevent any batsman from scoring runs. In this, you keep in mind which is the 'strong area' for the batsman to score runs. In which part of the ground does he like to play shots? But Suryakumar Yadav does not give such facility to the captain of the opposing team. Set the field as you want, he specializes in shots in the area where there will be no fielders. They find their 'gaps'.
For example, see Suryakumar Yadav's 'scoring pattern' in Tuesday's match. He scored only 10 runs in the long on and long off area. He scored 30 runs in the direction of midwicket and square leg. He scored 31 runs behind the wicket. While he scored 12 runs in the off-side. In technical language, it is called the 'wagon wheel'. Now the problem that Faf Du Plessis had in this match can be of any captain. Because he has 9 fielders in the field except for bowler and wicketkeeper. Those 9 fielders are not enough for Suryakumar Yadav. He is not called a 360-degree batsman for no reason. That is why at the beginning of this report some changes in the rules were suggested in view of Suryakumar Yadav's batting.

Suryakumar Yadav has come in color after failure
Before IPL, Suryakumar Yadav had scored 3 consecutive zeros in international matches. After this, his start in IPL was also bad. It was difficult to reach double figures in the initial matches. On April 16, when he played an inning of 43 runs against Kolkata, it seemed that now things will happen. But in the very next match, on 18 April, he got out after scoring 7 runs against Sunrisers Hyderabad. Despair further increased before Suryakumar Yadav's luck took a turn.
In the next match, scored 57 against Punjab Kings, 23 against Gujarat, 55 against Rajasthan, 66 against Punjab, 26 against Super Kings, and 83 against Bangalore on Tuesday. He has 4 half-centuries in the last 6 matches. The innings played on Tuesday are his best innings of this season. To stay in the playoff race, this form of Suryakumar Yadav is necessary for Mumbai Indians.
