Rohit Sharma praised Suryakumar Yadav for his fearless batting even though the Mumbai Indians skipper considered the pitch at the MA Chidambaram tough for batsmen to play strokes from the word go.

"I think Yadav is carrying that form that he had when he played for India. He is very fearless when he bats. When he plays those shots, it doesn`t look like he`s taking risks. Those are cricketing shots. We need a guy who bats fearlessly," said Rohit after the match.
