India’s T20 captain Suryakumar Yadav‘s struggles show no signs of ending. After a horrendous campaign with the Mumbai Indians, Suryakumar hoped to regain form in the Mumbai T20 League, but his first match of the season simply did not go his way. The attacking batter played his maiden game of the season against the North Mumbai Panthers, who set a massive target of 210 runs. Although Suryakumar got off to a promising start, he was unable to convert it into a match-winning knock for the Triumph Knights.
The veteran batsman was dismissed for 19 runs off just 11 balls, hitting four boundaries. He fell to bowler Rahul Sawant, departing as his team’s third wicket as the Triumph Knights failed to chase down the Panthers’ steep target.

The story was not much different for another Team India stalwart, Shreyas Iyerwho captains the SoBo Mumbai Falcons. Iyer, who displayed fine form for the Punjab Kings in the IPL 2026 season, could only score 5 runs before being sent packing. He was dismissed by ARCS Andheri captain Shivam Dubeywho plays for the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in the IPL.
Shreyas struggled to get going in yesterday’s game against Andheri. Walking in as the marquee captain and anchor, he failed to score a single boundary. Dube did not just get the better of Iyer in the match but went on to pick up a total of three wickets.
