Mayank Yadav, the rising star of the Lucknow Super Giants in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024, is facing a setback due to an injury. Known for his remarkable pace and promising talent, Yadav’s absence will be felt in the upcoming matches.

Colonel Vinod Bisht, CEO of Lucknow Super Giants, addressed the situation, stating that Yadav experienced soreness in the lower abdominal area. As a precautionary measure, the team is managing his workload for the next week, aiming for his swift return to the field.

“Mayank felt soreness in lower abdominal area and as a precaution we are managing his work load over next week. We hope to see him soon in the field,” CEO of Lucknow Super Giants Colonel Vinod Bisht said in a statement on Monday.

Impact on Matches Against Delhi Capitals and Kolkata Knight Riders

Unfortunately, Yadav’s injury sidelines him for the crucial matches against Delhi Capitals and Kolkata Knight Riders scheduled on April 12 and April 14, respectively. His absence will be a blow to the team’s bowling lineup, considering his recent form and contributions.

In the recent encounter against GT, Mayank Yadav’s performance was subpar as he bowled only one over, conceding 13 runs. His subdued intent and slower bowling speed, clocking under 138 kmph, raised doubts about his fitness.

Mayank Yadav’s Remarkable Bowling Speed

Yadav’s significance in IPL 2024 cannot be understated, especially considering his exceptional bowling speed. He gained attention by delivering the fastest ball of the season, clocking an impressive 156.7 kilometres per hour during a match against the Royal Challengers Bengaluru.

Details of Mayank Yadav’s Injury

The onset of Yadav’s lower abdominal soreness prompted the team to send him for a scan. While the exact nature of the injury is not disclosed, the team is closely monitoring his condition and managing his workload to facilitate a speedy recovery.

Yadav’s journey to IPL stardom has been remarkable. Prior to his injury, he showcased his talent in domestic tournaments like the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy, where he consistently impressed with his raw pace and impactful performances.

Notably, cricket legends Brett Lee and Dale Steyn commended Yadav for his exceptional bowling abilities and recognized his potential to become a formidable force in international cricket.
