Suryakumar Yadav Shows Signs Of Asia Cup Availability By Batting During Rehab At CoE
In July, Suryakumar had undergone surgery for a sports hernia in the lower-right abdomen in Munich, Germany, and then checked into the CoE for rehabilitation. Though Suryakumar showed in a video on his Instagram account on Friday that he’s resumed batting at the CoE, IANS understands that the right-handed batter already began his batting practice from the fag end of last week.
“Can’t wait to be back doing what I love,” wrote Suryakumar in the caption of the video, where he’s also seen doing exercises and running, all of which are a part of building his workload towards full fitness.
Suryakumar enjoyed a stellar run in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 by finishing as the tournament’s Most Valuable Player (MVP) after scoring 717 runs for the Mumbai Indians (MI), who played in Qualifier 2. He was the second-highest run-scorer of the season and was just behind Orange Cap winner B. Sai Sudharsan, who amassed 759 runs for the Gujarat Titans (GT).
