Love him, love him not, love him, love him not. This has been the conundrum with Suryakumar Yadav’s form this season so far. Well, MI fans needn’t ponder over the same tonight, as they will pour all the love they have for the 34-year-old who whacked a sensational 78 off just 53 balls.

MI got off to a fairly slow start, with opener Ishan Kishan being dismissed shockingly for a mere 8 runs, after swinging away wildly at a wider one from Rabada and being caught by Brar, a result that caught the Protean by surprise himself.
Finally, skipper Sam Curran decided to take him on with a wider slower one onto the off-side, which Surya swiped at wildly and caught the thick edge.
The edge has enough on it, along with Curran’s pace, as it flew to the left of cover-point where Prabhsimran Singh took off in an immaculately timed jump, snatching the ball out of thin air to remove the dangerman.
The MI batter’s form since his return has been fascinating, with a duck, fifty and another duck in the three games he has played so far.
And well, it would be safe to say that the law of averages truly stood the test, as Surya went on a fiery blitz against the PBKS bowlers, as he whacked them away at will, alongside talisman Rohit Sharma at the crease.
Surya notched up a sensational 78-run innings in 53 balls, laces with 7 fours and 3 sixes, as the hard-hitting phenomenon toyed with the pacers and spinners alike.
