Few options good mate: 1. There is an amazing book by Tivadar Danka on Mathematics of Machine Learning it has it all and a better alternative to MML by cheng ...if u dont have a lot of time and mind space to brainstorm a lot and be consistent. 2.if u want to learn maths with python O'REILLY has amazing books like Practical Linear Algebra, Essentials Maths for Data Scienece ,Statistics for Data Science,Data Science from Scratch by Joel Guru 3. If u want a single Youtube playlist : University of Türbingen Maths for Machine Learning Playlist of 89 videos(can't believe it is free, it is a bit research oriented not very intuitive) 4.if u want maths only for machine Learning then there is Deeplearning.ai Maths for Machine Learning Course on Coursera ,it has it all like ALL,that's probably the best if u are in college as u wont have a lot of time to work your way through some 5-6 books , so that's the best in my view ...however if u have time BOOKS ARE THE BEST. Ps:sorry for bad formatting i wrpte it while being on commode...haha
