Suryakumar Yadav celebrates his maiden international hundred. (P.C.:Twitter)Suryakumar Yadav's incredible innings of 117 (55) went in vain as India fell short of chasing down a record target by 17 runs against England at Trent Bridge on Sunday (July 10). The 31-year-old was a one-man-army for most of the run chase and as long as he was at the crease, the visitors were in with a shout.However, it was just too much for him to pull off alone as England avoided a series whitewash. The 215-run target needed a flying start from India’s top order but they lost three wickets in the powerplay. It looked like a huge defeat was on the cards.Suryakumar Yadav, however, showed incredible game sense and played arguably the best T20I knock by an Indian so far. Fans on Twitter were heartbroken by India's loss but hailed Suryakumar for his incredible hundred.Here are some of the reactions:Wasim Jaffer@WasimJaffer14SKY going after England's 215, almost pulling off a miracle: #ENGvIND10422570SKY going after England's 215, almost pulling off a miracle: #ENGvIND https://t.co/n9ZebJ1Lyn🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆@inocent_BachhaBest T20I knock for any Indian batsman till now. 4110Best T20I knock for any Indian batsman till now. 👑 https://t.co/l1JzyDbINqCricketologist@AMP86793444Pose of extravagance!303Pose of extravagance! https://t.co/G1QXwoKr2SThe Bharat Army@thebharatarmySkyball #ENGvIND #BharatArmy223987Skyball 😉⚡#ENGvIND #BharatArmyWellu@WellutwtBig for Moeen Ali eid Day & he catched Goat Surya Kumar yadav4211Big for Moeen Ali eid Day & he catched Goat Surya Kumar yadav🔥Adam Sutherland@ADSutherland_Sensational knock from SKY.

Virat Kohli played a couple of sublime strokes but once again seemed to overattack as he hit one straight into the hands of the cover fielder.When captain Rohit Sharma was dismissed, it looked like an England win was inevitable. With India at 31/3, Suryakumar was joined by Shreyas Iyer as the duo began to bring the visitors back on track.Suryakumar knew he had to get going and began to manufacture some outrageous shots. Iyer wasn't quite able to get the big shots consistently but he ensured he rotated the strike, giving Suryakumar as many deliveries to face as possible.As Iyer departed, the stage looked set for Dinesh Karthik and Ravindra Jadeja to prove their mettle as finishers. But they got out at the wrong time and it was all down to Suryakumar to bail out his team.He smashed Moeen Ali for 14 runs in the penultimate over and the pressure was on the off-spinner. However, he dismissed the centurion as 'SKY' hit one straight down long on's throat. It was the final nail in India's coffin.Although the visitors couldn't seal the whitewash, they have definitely got a proper glimpse of how destructive Suryakumar Yadav can be.
