Suryakumar Kumar will also captain Mumbai Indians in their first match. He is filling in for Hardik Pandya, who is serving a ban for a slow over-rate as captain last year. This gives Suryakumar a great chance to lead the team.

Suryakumar Yadav, while discussing his form, also shared that he will be batting at No. 4. Speaking to reporters on the eve of the game, he said:

“IPL, the form has been good (laughs). See, the thing is, it’s always good to have that impact at the top, and I’ve seen that guy. He’s been working really hard. So for Team India, I thought it will be better if he can bat number 3 and I can take the responsibility at number 4 because, for me, I think batting number doesn’t matter,” said Suryakumar.

Suryakumar Yadav talked about Mumbai Indians’ batting order for IPL 2025, saying there will be flexibility throughout the season. He also mentioned his form, explaining that he focuses on the process. He added:

I try and bat the same way and try and make that impact whenever there is an opportunity, and so does he. So you might see guys being flexible during this season, during stint with the IPL and we are all, everyone is flexible like even I can bat at 3,l I can bat at 5. Tilak can bat at 5.”

“So, it’s that flexibility we have in our team and with the form, I think, the harder you work, the luckier you get. If it has to come, it will come at any time, but I am actually a process-oriented man. I love to work hard in the nets, and if the runs have to follow, they’ll follow quickly some day or the other.”

Suryakumar Yadav talked about Mumbai Indians’ batting order for IPL 2025, saying there will be flexibility throughout the season. He also mentioned his form, explaining that he focuses on the process. He added:

“Has anyone been able to control him in so many years?! (Laughs).”
