Suryakumar Yadav Nine Runs Away From Pollard's MI Mark
suryakumar yadav is nine runs away from overtaking Kieron Pollard for second place on Mumbai Indians' all-time run list. The Mumbai Indians batter could reach the mark on Tuesday against Sunrisers Hyderabad at Wankhede Stadium, and 93 more runs would take him to 4,000 for the franchise.
Suryakumar Yadav and Pollard
Yadav has 3,907 runs in 121 matches and 119 innings for Mumbai Indians. His return has come with a 37.56 average and a 151.14 strike rate, plus two centuries and 29 fifties.
Pollard sits on 3,915 runs from 211 matches and 193 innings. He has a 28.78 average, a 147.01 strike rate and 18 fifties for Mumbai Indians, leaving Yadav one clean scoring burst from moving ahead.
Rohit Sharma leads Mumbai Indians
Rohit Sharma remains Mumbai Indians' top run-getter with 6,289 runs in 240 matches and 236 innings. He has two centuries and 41 fifties, which keeps the gap at the top well beyond this chase.
The tighter race is for second place, where Yadav is already within single digits of Pollard. That is the number Mumbai Indians will watch most closely when Sunrisers Hyderabad arrive on Tuesday.
Suryakumar Yadav's 2026 numbers
His IPL season has been quieter. Yadav has 157 runs in seven innings at an average of 22.42 and a strike rate of 142.72, with one fifty.
The form line has been mixed over a longer stretch too. In his past 15 innings after the USA clash, he has scored 315 runs at 21 with a strike rate of 132.35 and one half century, while his 21 T20Is this year have brought 641 runs at 35.61 with a strike rate of 156.64 and five fifties.
If he gets there at Wankhede, Yadav would move into second on Mumbai Indians' all-time scoring list and become only the second MI batter to reach 4,000 runs if he adds 93. For Mumbai, the chase is not about a record book entry alone; it is about whether a batter whose season has been ordinary can turn one innings into a franchise landmark.
