Mumbai Indians, Suryakumar Yadav: Mumbai Indians have to play their next match in IPL 2026 against Royal Challengers Bangalore on May 10 (Sunday). Before the match, news came that regular captain Hardik Pandya will not play in this match also. Hardik could not play in the last match against Lucknow due to not being completely well. Suryakumar Yadav took over the captaincy in his place. Now it is being told that Surya may also be out of MI in the next match.
Why can Suryakumar Yadav miss the match?
If media reports are to be believed, Surya is going to become a father this week, due to which he may miss the next match against RCB. After the news of Hardik and Surya’s exit, the question is arising that who will take charge of the team?
In the last match against Lucknow, Suryakumar was seen captaining in the absence of Hardik. While giving an update on Hardik, Surya had said that he is not completely well, due to which he is playing as captain.
Hardik and Surya are out, who will take charge of Mumbai now?
The thing to note is that in the last match against Lucknow, Rohit Sharma has returned, who had missed some matches in the middle of the season due to injury. If both Hardik and Surya do not play in the next match, then it is expected that Rohit can once again be seen as the captain of Mumbai. Let us tell you that Rohit is the captain under whose captaincy the team has won 5 IPL titles.
However, apart from Rohit Sharma, Jasprit Bumrah will also be a good option as captain for the team. Bumrah is an experienced bowler of the team. The thing to note is that no official update has come from the franchise on Hardik and Surya not playing.
