In the clash with Gujarat Titans today, the non-opening right-handed batter needs just 48 runs to surpass the IPL record of Ab de Villiers. The South African great has scored 687 runs in 2016, which is still the highest runs scored in a single season by a non-opening batter. If Suryakumar Yadav scores 48 runs today, he will get past Ab de Villiers to become the highest run-scorer as a non-opening batter in a single season. As per ESPNCricinfo, he is the only non-opening batter to score over 600+ runs in two seasons. Earlier in 2023, he scored 605 runs.

Hardik Pandya led Mumbai Indians undoubtedly improved a lot compared to their last season, where they finished their season at the bottom of the table. In 2025, they qualified for the playoffs. If they get past Gujarat Titans to face Punjab Kings in Qualifier 2 and if they overcome that challenge, then they will face the RCB in the final of the IPL 2025, and who knows, if they manage to win in the final, it will be their 6th IPL title which will be most by any IPL team.
