You will be surprised to know that in IPL 2025, not Suryakumar Yadav, but only another player was entitled to become ‘Man of the Tournament’, but he became unfair to publicly. This is none other than the Gujarat Titans (GT) batsman Sai Sudarshan. Sai Sudarshan scored the highest 759 runs in the IPL 2025 season. At the same time, Suryakumar Yadav scored 717 runs. Despite scoring the most runs in the IPL 2025 season, Sai Sudarshan was not selected as the Most Valuable Player of the Season (Man of the Tournament).
