However, NCA (National Cricket Academy) has declared Suryakumar fit to play, and destructive batter will join the team on April 5.  

Mumbai will next play against Delhi Capitals on April 7 afternoon, and the management will take a call on SKY’s presence in the playing 11 for Sunday’s game after seeing his progress during the net session.

Suryakumar Yadav is the no.1 batter in T20I cricket and holds a big reputation in the Indian Premier League due to his ability to play shots all over the ground.  

SKY has played 85 games for MI out of his 139 overall IPL games and has a strike-rate of 146.2. After starting his IPL journey with MI in 2011, the right-handed batter moved to KKR in 2014 where he played 4 seasons before coming back to Mumbai Indians, where he made massive strides and became an important asset to the team.  

Mumbai badly missed their hard-hitting batter’s services this season so far. MI lost their first game by 6 runs while chasing due to lack of power-hitting against quality bowling.  

While their bowlers conceded 277, the highest ever total in IPL history against Sunrisers Hyderabad. Mumbai in reply tried their best to chase the unbelievable total but failed to secure a win by 31 runs.  

The worse scenario came in for MI on their own venue at Wankhede when they only managed to post 125 and later lost the game by 6 wickets against Rajasthan Royals.  

Sky’s inclusion will boost MI’s confidence for the remaining league games.  

Suryakumar last played in a competitive game in December last year against South Africa when he scored a 56-ball 100.  

Mumbai Indians has been playing under new skipper Hardik Pandya in IPL 2024 2023 and the franchise will be aiming to secure their first 2 points to gain some confidence.
