Mumbai Indians star Suryakumar Yadav created history by breaking legendary Sachin Tendulkar’s record during his team’s IPL 2025 match against Punjab Kings at Sawai Mansingh Stadium, Jaipur.
Suryakumar scored 57 off 39 deliveries with the help of 6 boundaries and 2 sixes and propelled MI to 184/7 in their 20 overs, which was eventually chased easily by Punjab Kings to storm into the Qualifier 1 of the ongoing IPL 2025 season.
Notably, Suryakumar is also India’s T20 captain and there were question marks over his form before the start of the IPL 2025 season. However, he has answered his critics by scoring more than 600 runs in the ongoing IPL season.
This is the second time Suryakumar has scored more than 600 runs in an IPL season. After scoring 605 runs in 16 innings at an average of 43.21 and a strike rate of 181.1 during the 2023 season, he has scored 640 runs in 14 innings of IPL 2025 season at an average of 71.11 and a strike rate of 167.97 so far. It is his best IPL season in terms of runs.
