Not meteors, but balls were dropping from the sky! Playing his second match following his return from an ankle injury he suffered in December last year, Suryakumar Yadav was in no mood to mess around. The world’s No. 1 T20I batter returned to cricket in the only manner he knows: bashing the bowlers.
Sixes over deep square leg and point, dragging balls from outside off to midwicket—that’s how Surya was playing. He gave no bowler any respect playing at his beloved home. Minutes later, he’d scored a fifty in his second IPL 2024 match, and that too from just 17 balls. The impact player did leave a big impact on the MI vs RCB match, scoring the second-fastest fifty of the season.
