The 19th season of Indian Premier League (IPL 2025) will kick off right after the conclusion of ICC Champions Trophy 2025.
Mumbai Indians (MI), with five IPL titles to their name, had a disappointing season last year, finishing at the bottom under Hardik Pandya’s captaincy.
Although Mumbai Indians (MI) have strengthened its squad through the IPL auction, a major concern is the declining form of one of their star players, which could affect their chances in upcoming Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025.
Suryakumar Yadav, one of the best T20I batters in world, has been a key figure in Mumbai Indians’ (MI) batting lineup alongside Rohit Sharma. However, at present, he is struggling to find his rhythm. SKY is currently leading India in a five-match T20I series against England.
As one of Mumbai Indians (MI) most reliable players, Suryakumar Yadav’s form has a big impact on MI’s success.
Unfortunately, his recent performances have been far from ideal. In the last 10 T20I matches, Surya has scored 50 or more only once. His top score in the last seven matches was just 21, with three matches where he failed to reach double digits. His best performance in the last 10 matches was 75, which came in the third T20 against Bangladesh.
Suryakumar Yadav’s form in IND vs ENG T20Is
Suryakumar Yadav has had a rough start in the ongoing five-match T20I series, managing only 26 runs across the first three games. He was dismissed for a duck in the opening match, followed by scores of 12 and 14 in the second and third games, respectively. The fourth T20I between the two teams will be played tomorrow (Friday, February 31) in Pune.
The drop in Suryakumar Yadav’s form has raised serious concerns for Mumbai Indians (MI). After a challenging season with captaincy changes and internal issues, MI hopes for a fresh start in Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 with the addition of new players. However, Surya’s return to form will be crucial for their success.
