Suryakumar Yadav is considered one of the dangerous in the shortest format of cricket (T20I). Known as India's Mr 360, the T20I skipper's confidence in unorthodox shots (Supla shot) makes it difficult for bowlers to bowl at him.
Surya is in London to watch a tennis match live at Wimbledon 2025. His all-white suit drew plenty of admiration from fans online, with many praising his Wimbledon-appropriate look. Devisha complemented him with a graceful ensemble, and the duo made for one of the most stylish couples at the tournament.
During an interaction, he made an interesting revelation about one tennis shot he would like to play on a cricket field. The 34-year-old revealed that he wants to play the shot called as 'Tweener' in tennis terms. A 'Tweener' shot is played when the player runs backwards and hits the ball from between the legs.

He was last seen in action during IPL 2025, where he played a vital role in Mumbai Indians' run to the playoffs. He finished the season with 717 runs - the most by a non-opener in the tournament's history and the highest by any MI batter in a single season.
Surya even featured briefly in the T20 Mumbai League, captaining Triumph Knights Mumbai North East and scoring 122 runs in five innings before deciding to undergo the procedure. The Mumbai cricketer took over leadership of India in T20Is after they won the World Cup in June 2024.
