“Yadav sustained the injury during the team's fixture against Gujarat Titans on May 6,” the IPL stated in a media release.

Mumbai Indians in a separate statement added, “Suryakumar Yadav has sustained a muscle strain on the left forearm and has been ruled out of the season. He has been advised rest in consultation with the BCCI medical team.”
