Suryakumar Yadav Likely to Face Uganda in Mumbai Tune-Up for T20 Mumbai League

The expected May 30 appearance would give the India captain match practice before the league and follows a new five-year MoU between the Mumbai Cricket Association and Cricket Uganda.

Overview

  • MCA officials said Suryakumar Yadav is likely to play for Triumph Knights Mumbai North East against Uganda on Saturday, May 30 at the MCA Ground in Bandra Kurla Complex.
  • Uganda are touring Mumbai for four one-day matches and four T20 games and already swept a four-match 50‑over series against the MCA Colts XI 4-0.
  • The T20 fixtures are exhibition matches against four separate teams linked to the T20 Mumbai League, which is due to begin on June 1.
  • The MCA announced a five-year Memorandum of Understanding with Cricket Uganda that the association says was encouraged by ICC chairman Jay Shah and is meant to boost bilateral match opportunities.
  • Organisers say the games will give Suryakumar match practice after a difficult IPL 2026 and will provide exposure for Mumbai’s bench players, but the playing XI for May 30 has not been formally published yet.
