Suryakumar Yadav Shares Secret Of His Unreal Consistency In IPL 2025 | Watch
@Source: news18.com
After blasting his way to another match-winning knock for the Mumbai Indians, Suryakumar Yadav shared his secret for remarkable consistency in the ongoing 2025 edition of the Indian Premier League. The T20 maverick hammered the Delhi Capitals in an important league-stage clash on Wednesday, May 21, with his dominant 73 not out off 43 balls, including 7 fours and 4 sixes. On a challenging surface where the ball gripped consistently, Suryakumar’s knock made the ultimate difference as MI posted an above-par score of 180/5 and won by a margin of 59 runs.
The experienced right-hander brought his skill and temperament to the fore and overcame a slow start to eventually take MI to a winning total alongside No. 7 batter Naman Dhir, whose cameo of 24* from 8 deliveries took the game further away from the Capitals.
Speaking with Dhir after the win, Suryakumar underlined the basics as key to his record-breaking consistency this season.

“The secret of consistency is to apply the same intensity that I bat with in matches on my net sessions. I focus on doing similar batting in the nets as I do in the matches and try to stay there in the middle until I bring my team to a strong position,” Suryakumar told Dhir in a post-game clip posted by the Indian Premier League, advising the youngster to follow suit. The 34-year-old was thrilled to receive the ‘Player of the Match’ award earlier on and disclosed his wife’s words that motivated him to achieve it.
“It has been thirteen games now; my wife told me a sweet story. She said I have gotten all the awards but not the POTM award. This award is special today. From the team’s point of view, the knock was important today. And this trophy is for her (my wife), and it was important (for me) to play till the end. She waits for such moments, and we celebrate it when we go back, so really looking forward to it,” he said at the presentation ceremony.
Suryakumar has enjoyed record-shattering consistency at this year’s IPL, becoming the only player in the league’s history to get 13 consecutive 25+ scores. He had already surpassed Robin Uthappa’s record for 10 scores of 25 or more in the toughest league. With his fantastic innings against DC, Suryakumar also equalled the record held by Temba Bavuma for most 25+ knocks in T20 cricket. The great power hitter has top-scored for MI this season with 583 runs at a strike rate of 170.46.
