Suryakumar Yadav Likely To Miss First Match For Mumbai Indian
Mumbai Indians star batsman Suryakumar Yadav is unlikely to be available in the first match of the team against Delhi Capitals on March 27
Mumbai Indians star batsman Suryakumar Yadav hasn’t completely recovered from his injury.
Suryakumar, 31, sustained a hairline fracture on his thumb during the T20I series against West Indies last month and was subsequently ruled out of the Sri Lanka T20I matches.
Suryakumar Yadav to be fit for Mumbai Indians’ second match
In the second MI game, he would be 100 percent match fit. It is likely to be more of a precautionary measure if he doesn’t play the first game
Suryakumar was bought by Mumbai Indians in the IPL auction 2018 and played for them in four seasons where he scored 1733 runs for them from 50 IPL games.
Suryakumar is a brilliant player of stroke play and maintained a balance in MI’s batting line-up but had a poor outing in the last season where he amassed 317 runs from 14 games
Suryakumar was one of the four players retained by Mumbai Indians in the IPL retention window. It is expected that he will play the second match against Rajasthan Royals on April 2.
