Suryakumar Yadav has been in superb form in IPL 2025, and has continued that stellar run in the game against Punjab Kings. He has scored over 25 in each of the league stage game and has now surpassed Sachin Tendulkar's tally of 618 runs in a single IPL season. Sachin had a record of most runs by an MI batter in a single IPL season, and now after 15 years, Suryakumar Yadav has broken that record.

Suryakumar Yadav Grows In Stature As MI Batter

Sachin Tendulkar scored 618 runs in the 2010 season with an average of 47.53 and strike-rate of 132.61. Suryakumar Yadav came close to breaking that record in 2023 when he scored 605 runs, but has finally broken it in the 2025 edition, a year where he also led MI for the first time during the opening game against CSK.

Sachin Tendulkar features in the top-5 list twice. After a stellar season of 618 runs in 2010, Sachin scored 553 runs in 2011. Lendl Simmons is fourth in the list with 540 runs in the 2015 season while Rohit Sharma's best IPL season as a batter has been the 2013 one, where he scored 538 runs.
