Mayank Yadav’s Express Fast Bowling Puts Him in Fast Lane to Indian Team and T20 World Cup Squad
Mayank Yadav’s meteoric rise as an express fast bowler has not only caught the attention of fans and experts alike but has also put him in contention for a spot in the Indian team, and possibly even in the T20 World Cup squad. The Lucknow Super Giants’ pacer has been turning heads with his blistering pace and impeccable line and length in just two IPL matches.
In his latest outing against Royal Challengers Bengaluru, Mayank Yadav wreaked havoc by picking up three crucial wickets and helping his team secure a victory. Former Australian allrounder Tom Moody believes that Mayank is a serious contender for the upcoming T20 World Cup, considering his skillset and current form.
Mitchell McClenaghan, former New Zealand pace bowler, echoed similar sentiments, stating that Mayank’s impressive performances in the IPL should not go unnoticed when it comes to World Cup selection. At just 21 years old, Mayank has already made history by winning the ‘Player of the Match’ award in his first two IPL matches, showcasing his potential as a future star in Indian cricket.
With a top speed of 156.7 kmph, Mayank has not only set a new record for the fastest ball of the season but has also displayed remarkable control and intimidation on the field. His ability to consistently bowl above 150kmph and trouble top-order batsmen has certainly put him on the radar for national selection.
As the T20 World Cup approaches, all eyes will be on Mayank Yadav as he continues to impress with his raw pace and talent, making a strong case for a spot in the Indian team and potentially becoming a key player in the tournament.
