Twitter reacts to India's own 'Mr. 360 ' Suryakumar Yadav smashing Archer for six on very first ball

Batting in front of the mirror is a common thing for budding cricketers. Some use it as an extended part of their visualization practice. One of the most desirable and audacious shots in the cricketing book is hooking/pulling genuine fast bowlers. Not at all easy to execute. After missing out on Indian selection so many times when he deserved it. Made to wait for eternity. That was how Suryalumar Yadav has been treated for the last one and half years. He finally gets a call-up for the England series. Makes his debut in the second game too. Yet doesn't get to bat but is dropped the next game. Again gets a chance today. A rampaging Jofra Archer, who has been delivering thunderbolts and has just got out Rohit Sharma is ready to breathe fire down Surya's neck. He's bracing up to face his first delivery.

It's a short delivery. Jofra bowls them just at the right place near the helmet. He unleashes it on SKY. But Surya is also a gambler. He takes on Jofra right on his first delivery. Gets the hook out of his 360-degree repertoire of shots. He moves inside the line of the ball. Mind you, it's a brute bolting towards him at 143.9kph. Surya's one leg is off the ground. What about balance? Jeez, haven't you seen SKY's swagger and chutzpah in the IPL? One leg off the ground, and still he hooks it for a six over fine leg. Whattay start.

He has done it to Jofra in the IPL. He does it against him at the top level too. Dream shot on a dream batting debut. The one that players try in front of their mirror at home. SKY is living the dream.

SKY HAS ARRIVED!!

What a start!

First ball and six!

FIRST BALL FIRST SIX!!

STATEMENT!!

What was that Surya?

Proud of SKY!

Remember the name!
