IPL 2021: Suryakumar Yadav needs to spend some time in the middle, says MI coach Mahela Jayawardene

Mumbai Indians head coach Mahela Jayawardene said that Suryakumar Yadav's poor run with the bat in the ongoing UAE leg of IPL 2021 is not a big concern for the defending champions.

Mumbai Indians coach Mahela Jayawardene backed star batsman Suryakumar Yadav ahead of MI's must-win encounter with Delhi Capitals, saying that the franchise is not too worried about Surya's lean patch in the UAE leg of IPL 2021.

Jayawardene believes that Yadav will regain his form once he spends some time in the middle. Batting has been a big letdown for the record five-time IPL champions as Suryakumar Yadav is horribly out of form with scores of 0, 8, 5, 3 in the UAE leg.
