Surya Kumar Yadav edges ahead in the
Orange Cap race with 510 runs, maintaining his top spot by scoring a steady 35 in his recent outing against Gujarat Titans. Though Mumbai Indians couldn’t secure the win, Surya’s form has been a standout throughout the season. With an impressive average of 63.75 and a blazing strike rate of 170.56, he continues to anchor the MI batting order. His ability to consistently contribute, even under pressure, has made him one of the most dependable performers this IPL. As the playoff race intensifies, Surya’s form could be crucial for MI’s campaign.
Hot on his heels are Sai Sudharsan (509 runs) and Shubman Gill (508 runs), both of whom remain in red-hot form. Gill, in particular, made a big impact in the last match, guiding GT to a DLS win over MI with a composed and match-winning knock, earning him the Player of the Match award. Virat Kohli (505 runs) continues to showcase his vintage form for RCB, while Jos Buttler (500 runs) remains a key force in Gujarat’s top order. Other strong performers like Yashasvi Jaiswal, Prabhsimran Singh, and Nicholas Pooran are also keeping the run charts competitive with impactful contributions.

Krishna tops the purple cap leaderboard
On the bowling front, Prasidh Krishna firmly holds the
Purple Cap with 20 wickets in 11 matches. His pace and control have made him Gujarat Titans' most reliable bowler this season. Although he went wicketless in the last game, his tight lines and economy under pressure helped restrict MI to a chaseable score. Close contenders like Josh Hazlewood and Trent Boult (18 wickets each) continue to deliver for their teams, while bowlers like Noor Ahmad, Varun Chakaravarthy, and Arshdeep Singh are making their mark as the tournament heats up.
