Suryakumar Yadav on his learnings from Rohit Sharma's captaincy:
"I have learnt from him (Rohit) that in life, balance is important, after doing well, even if you lose, your character should not change. This is one quality sportsman should have,"
"A leader is one who decides how his team plays a particular format,"
"When I am on the ground, I keep noticing him. How his body language is and how he keeps calm and how he treats his bowlers, how he speaks to everyone on and off the field. I know how he treats his players, what he wants from them.
"That route I have also taken as he has been successful. Obviously, I have put my own masala in it (his own ideas). It's been going smooth,"
"From a leader, you expect how much time one spends with his guys to build that comfort level. I also try that with my boys. Even when I am not playing, I try to hang out with players, have a meal with them, little things done off the field reflect on the on-field performance,"
"Whatever is on their mind, I listen carefully and I try and spend a lot of time with them to understand, who can deliver for me under pressure and in crunch situations,"
"My Test comeback will happen, when it has to happen. I don't miss any domestic competition be it red ball or white ball."
