Suryakumar Yadav and his wife Devisha Shetty MUMBAI: India T20 captain Suryakumar Yadav and his wife Devisha Shetty were blessed with a baby girl on Thursday. It is not confirmed when or if SKY, who is currently enjoying personal time, will join Mumbai Indians (MI) in Raipur for Sunday’s match against Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB). Mumbai Indians are ninth in the table with just six points after 10 matches and have only an outside chance of making the playoffs.

T20 World Cup: Gautam Gambhir, Suryakumar Yadav after Team India’s win While his personal form has been far from satisfactory, 2026 has been a lucky one for the 35-year-old Mumbaikar as he led India to the 2026 World Cup title as the men in blue beat New Zealand by 96 runs in the final at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on March 8, almost a couple of months ago. SKY will be hoping to return to form in IPL 2026, in which they have so far managed to score just 195 runs in 10 matches at 19.50 at a strike rate of 145.52. With seven defeats and three wins, Mumbai Indians are languishing at the ninth spot in the points table and need to win each of their remaining matches to keep their slim playoff hopes alive.It remains to be seen how Pandya, who has missed two matches in this edition of the IPL due to health issues, will line up in the must-win clash against defending champions RCB at the Shaheed Veer Narayan Singh International Cricket Stadium in Raipur.While Suryakumar Yadav took the lead in Pandya’s absence, opener Ryan Rickelton said after the match against LSG that he did not have much information on the matter.“I don’t know when he’s expected to be back. I only found out this afternoon that he’s had back spasms. I’m not aware of the extent of it or how bad it is or what he’s feeling. But I’m sure he’ll be back with the group when we head to Raipur this week,” Rickelton said.
