IPL 2024: Mayank Yadav Injured Again, Leaves Field Without Completing Spell During LSG vs MI
Mayank Yadav left the field without completing his spell.
Lucknow Super Giants speedster Mayank Yadav’s return to the IPL 2024 was short-lived as he experienced discomfort during his spell against Mumbai Indians on April 30th. This raises concerns about recurring injuries plaguing the young talent.
Mayank, who impressed earlier in the season with his raw pace and ability to take wickets, had already missed several matches due to an abdominal strain. Although he passed recent fitness tests, discomfort forced him off the field during his 18th over.
Mayank had a tough day, finishing with figures of 3.1-0-31-1. He dismissed Mohammad Nabi with the first ball of his last over, but then had to leave the field due to stiffness. Naveen-ul-Haq bowled the remaining 5 balls.
LSG still have a ways to go before reaching the playoffs. While they boast talents like Mohsin Khan, Arshad Khan, Yash Thakur in their Indian pace attack, Mayank’s fitness will be crucial considering the impact he brings.
The young Delhi pacer made a stunning debut in IPL 2024, clocking the fastest ball at 156.7 km/h. He followed it up with consecutive 3-wicket hauls, earning praise from cricket experts, including his idol Dale Steyn.
