Mumbai named Suryakumar Yadav in SMAT 2025-26 squad

Suryakumar Yadav, the Indian T20I captain and Mumbai Indians star, has also been named in the T20I squad. Before the five-match home T20I series against South Africa, which will begin on December 9, SKY will get some important match practice in the upcoming SMAT season.   

Suryakumar Yadav, the second-leading run-scorer in the IPL 2025, who set an example of consistent T20 batting during the IPL 2025, is struggling to perform consistently in the recent T20I matches. After a forgettable performance in the Asia Cup T20 2025, where the Indian T20I captain only scored 72 runs in six innings with an average of 18.00, including a highest score of 47 not out, Suryakumar Yadav finished the Australia T20I tour as the third leading run-scorer for India, but his dominant consistency is still missing. In the Australia tour, the Indian T20I skipper scored 39 not out, 1, 24, and 20 runs, respectively.  

Also, Ajinkya Rahane, Sarfaraz Khan, Shivam Dube, Musheer Khan, Tanush Kotian, wicketkeeper Angkrish Raghuvanshi, etc, are significant names in the Mumbai squad for the upcoming SMAT 2025-26.
