Suryakumar Yadav surpasses Sachin Tendulkar's record of having most runs for MI in an IPL season

Suryakumar Yadav has broken a 15-year-old record held by Sachin Tendulkar, becoming the highest run-scorer for Mumbai Indians in a single IPL season. With over 630 runs in IPL 2025, SKY has surpassed Tendulkar’s 2010 tally of 618 runs. His consistent, explosive batting has made him the backbone of MI's campaign and marked a new era in the franchise's batting legacy.

Suryakumar Yadav Surpasses Sachin Tendulkar's Record of Having Most Runs for MI in an IPL Season

Suryakumar Yadav broke the 15-year-old record of Sachin Tendulkar, etching his name in the history books of the Indian Premier League (IPL). In a stunning display of consistent power-hitting and match-winning performances, Suryakumar Yadav has now scored the most runs for Mumbai Indians (MI) in a single IPL season, surpassing the legendary mark set by Sachin Tendulkar back in 2010.

A Milestone Moment

Wankhede Stadium, the home ground of Mumbai Indians and a place where Sachin once ruled witnessed a historic moment as Suryakumar Yadav calmly nudged a delivery to the boundary—taking his tally past Tendulkar’s record of 618 runs in the 2010 season.

This wasn’t just another half-century or a quickfire innings. This was a symbolic torch-passing moment. From the Master Blaster to the new-age 360-degree batter, MI fans stood up in unison to celebrate an extraordinary feat.

 The Numbers Behind the Record

Player                                      Season                               Runs Scored

Suryakumar Yadav              2025                                630+

Sachin Tendulkar              2010                                 618

Rohit Sharma                      2013                          538

Ishan Kishan                     2020                                 516

With multiple half-centuries and a couple of blistering fifties, Suryakumar has been the backbone of MI’s campaign this year. His strike rate has remained above 150, and his ability to find gaps around the ground makes him nearly unstoppable.

What Makes This Record Special?

Sachin Tendulkar’s 2010 season was iconic—not only because of the runs but because he achieved it in an era when T20 scoring wasn’t as explosive as today. For Suryakumar Yadav to break this 15-year-old record in a format where expectations and competition have skyrocketed is a true testament to his evolution as a world-class batter.

A Modern-Day Maestro

From domestic cricket to becoming a mainstay in the Indian national team and now creating history for MI, Suryakumar Yadav’s journey has been nothing short of inspirational. Nicknamed "SKY", he has redefined the role of a modern T20 batter—fearless, inventive, and highly effective.

Final Thoughts

Suryakumar Yadav’s achievement is more than just a record. It’s a moment of transition for Mumbai Indians—a signal that the legacy of greatness continues. As MI eyes another playoff berth, fans and cricket lovers alike will be watching SKY’s next move closely. The Master has passed the baton, and the new legend is flying high.
