At the beginning of IPL (IPL 2023), the bat of T20 king Suryakumar Yadav looked silent. But when Sky caught the rhythm, the bowlers of the opposing teams kept dancing all around the ground. Surya was seen doing something similar against Gujarat (MI vs GT). He set foot on the crease like Angad in difficult times and hit a quick half-century. Mr. 360 alone has failed all the powers of Gujarat.
In this match, Gujarat won the toss and invited Mumbai to bat first. Rashid Khan put Mumbai in trouble by sending Rohit Sharma, Ishaan Kishan, and Nehal Wadhera to the pavilion. But then came Surya Bhau, this player single-handedly took the Gujarat team on remand. Mr. 360's form overshadowed Gujarat and Sky hit 103 runs in just 49 balls. His innings included 11 fours and 6 sky-high sixes. From Rashid Khan to Mohammed Shami, brilliant bowlers were seen battered in front of Surya Bhau.

Unturned in the last match
Suryakumar Yadav has waged a real war with the opposition team for the last few matches. Sky's bat was calm in the first 5 matches. In the match against Gujarat, he left no stone unturned in the previous match. In the match against RCB, he gave wickets for 83 runs. At the same time, now by hitting a six on the last ball against Gujarat, he has spread his echo by completing a century. Thanks to Sky's fiery century, Mumbai has set a target of 219 runs in front of Gujarat and was succesful in defending it.
