Suryakumar Yadav, often referred to as SKY, showcased a match-winning performance by hitting a breathtaking century that propelled Mumbai Indians to a significant victory. His innings were not just about the volume of runs but how they were scored. Facing a formidable bowling attack including Pat Cummins, Yadav's innings included a flurry of boundaries - 4s and 6s, culminating in a dramatic six that brought up his century in the 17th over, pushing MI's score to 167/3. His explosive batting not only demoralized the SRH bowlers but also energized the Mumbai crowd, underlining his status as a top-tier batsman in T20 cricket.
