MI vs DC: Suryakumar Yadav continues IPL 2025 form
Suryakumar Yadav had not scored less than 25 in the last 12 games, and he was once again central to Mumbai Indians’ chances. Rohit Sharma was dismissed early, while Delhi Capitals got back with the wickets of Ryan Rickelton and Will Jacks. Surya and Tilak Varma rebuilt the innings with a stable 50-run stand on a sluggish wicket.
Delhi Capitals were on top for most of the game, despite missing captain Axar Patel with illness. Kuldeep Yadav and Vipraj Nigam kept things tight in the middle overs. Tilak was dismissed for a run-a-ball 27, while Hardik Pandya was also dismissed cheaply. Suryakumar Yadav reached his fifty, but Mumbai Indians only had 132 on the board in 18 overs.
