Mayank Yadav’s Impressive Performance in IPL 2024 Raises T20 World Cup Squad Hopes
Mayank Yadav, the rising star of Lucknow Super Giants, has been making headlines in the ongoing IPL with his blistering pace and accuracy on the field. The 21-year-old speedster recently clocked the fastest delivery of the season at a staggering 156.7 kmph, leaving everyone in awe of his talent.
Former chief selector MSK Prasad, who is now a strategic consultant for LSG, has been vocal about Mayank’s potential and believes he deserves a spot in India’s T20 World Cup squad. Prasad highlighted Mayank’s ability to unsettle the best batsmen in the business and his composure under pressure in high-stakes matches like the IPL.
“Mayank has shown he can absorb pressure and bowl consistently at a good line. His pace has troubled even the best batsmen in the league, making him a valuable asset for the national team,” Prasad commented during a conversation with RevSportz.
Unfortunately, Mayank suffered a side strain during a recent match against Gujarat Titans and had to leave the field after bowling just one over. Despite his early exit, LSG managed to secure a 33-run victory over GT, thanks to a solid team effort.
Lucknow all-rounder Krunal Pandya reassured fans that Mayank seemed fine after coming off the field, raising hopes for his quick recovery and return to the playing XI. With his impressive performances and potential, Mayank Yadav has undoubtedly become a player to watch out for in the upcoming matches of the IPL and possibly in the T20 World Cup squad for India.
