Suryakumar Yadav is a name that cricket fans know well, especially when it comes to T20 matches. Currently no 5 in ICC T20 rankings Suryakumar Yadav has a point to prove. In the previous season, though, he started on the sidelines, missing the first three games of IPL 2024. You could really feel his absence in the Mumbai Indians lineup because the team struggled without him and ended up losing those matches.
When he finally made his return against the Delhi Capitals, things didn’t go as planned. He didn’t score any runs at all – what we call a duck. But just when everyone thought he might be off his game, he showed up big time against the Royal Challengers Bangalore. In a stunning performance, he scored a fifty in just 17 balls, reminding everyone why he’s so highly regarded in the cricket world. Suryakumar, often called SKY, has this amazing ability to hit the ball hard and with precision, and he knows various shots that keep bowlers on their toes.
Looking ahead, he’s set to take the field again this Sunday when the Mumbai Indians face off against the Chennai Super Kings at Wankhede Stadium. The big question is whether Suryakumar can make a real impact in that match. Given how he batted last game, it’s clear he’s eager to make a mark, and his past records suggest he might just do that.

Stats at MA Chidambaram stadium:
Historically, he has held his own against the Chennai Super Kings throughout his IPL career. While he hasn’t been at his best in terms of stats against CSK specifically, he has managed to be a thorn in their side in a few innings. In total, he’s played 17 matches against them, getting to bat in 14 of those. His run tally stands at 340 with an average of 26.15, and a strike rate that’s decent at 117.21. He’s hit two fifties, with his highest score being an unbeaten 71. So, he definitely has room to improve those numbers, and Sunday could provide a great opportunity to do just that.
Fans will be excited to see if he can turn things around and deliver a standout performance against CSK. Given his potential and the fire he’s shown lately, it would be no surprise to see SKY put on a display that leaves everyone talking.
