Mumbai Indians are performing brilliantly in IPL 2025. In the Eliminator match on Friday, the team defeated Gujarat Titans by 20 runs and made it to the second qualifier, where the team would clash against Punjab Kings.
There was a moment in the match when star batsman Suryakumar Yadav’s injury increased the team’s tension. Now the team’s main coach Mahela Jayawardene has updated his injury.
Speaking at the post -match press conference, Mahela Jayawardene clearly stated that Suryakumar is perfectly fit and there was no problem with him. He claimed that he had not yet heard anything about Suryakumar from the team’s physio. He further said that Suryakumar should play against Punjab in another qualifier, even if he has to play with one foot.
Don’t worry about minor injuries – Mahela Jayawardene
Mahela Jayawardene further said, “We know that this is a difficult schedule for us, but I think everyone is fit.” Don’t worry about minor injuries. I haven’t heard anything from physio. I am sure he will play against Punjab.
Suryakumar Yadav is in excellent form
T20 Specialist Suryakumar is performing brilliantly in the IPL season and is also the top scorer of the Mumbai team. He has played 15 matches this season and scored 673 runs at an average of 67.30. He is the highest scorer in the tournament, only after Sai Sudarshan of Gujarat Titans, whose name is 759 runs. In this way, Suryakumar is only 86 runs behind Sudarshan. If the Mumbai team enters the final, Suryakumar will have a chance to play two matches. If he scored 87 runs in these two matches, he will win the Orange cap.
There will be a collision with Punjab Kings in Qualifier-2
The IPL 2025 trip for Gujarat Titans is now over. The Mumbai Indians team will clash against Punjab Kings in Qualifier-2. Whoever wins in Qualifier-2 between Mumbai and Punjab will play against Royal Challengers Bengaluru in the final.
