IPL 2018: SRH vs MI: 5 reasons why Mumbai Indians lost

#2 Suryakumar’s Struggles

Number 4 is a key batting slot in a T20 game. The guy batting at 4 should be able to rotate the strike as well as strike it big when needed. Unfortunately, Suryakumar Yadav struggled to do both in today’s game.

Mumbai had a healthy run rate of 9 after the first 6 overs. However, Suryakumar’s struggling innings sucked all the momentum from Mumbai’s innings as he played too many dot balls. In the end, he could only manage 26 runs of the 31 balls he faced which applied the brakes on Mumbai’s scoring rate.
