Mumbai Indians’ sensational batter Suryakumar Yadav played one of the all-time great Indian Premier League (IPL) knocks to register his maiden century in the tournament’s history. He accomplished this feat during the Mumbai Indians’ (MI) crucial encounter against the Gujarat Titans at Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai.
