Suryakumar Yadav yet another golden duck to his tally as the Mumbai Indians star had a nightmarish outing at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Tuesday. In the first innings, SKY was guilty of misjudging an Axar Patel six that just went over the ropes for a maximum. On the second count, he dropped a sitter, getting hit in the face in the process.

That misfortune continued when he stepped out to bat at the fall of Tilak Varma’s wicket. With Mumbai needing some sensible batting, SKy did the exact opposite. Facing Mukesh Kumar, Surya tried to swivel pull a back of a length delivery, only to hold onto Kuldeep Yadav at fine leg.

It continued Surya’s run of a forgettable few weeks. The Mumbai batter got 8 on his Test debut, before a hat-trick of golden ducks in the ODI series against Australia. His fortune did not change in the IPL, with scores of 15 and 1 in the two previous games.
While Tim David and Cameron Green did bail MI out in the end, the five-time champions will need their star batter to fire. It is a long season and with WTC Final and the World Cup looming, Surya will have to get back to his best.
