The wait is finally over! Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) fans are elated as their tearaway fast bowler Mayank Yadav is set to make a comeback against Mumbai Indians (MI) on Tuesday. Mayank, known for his searing pace that can touch over 150 kmph, missed the last five games due to a side strain injury.
Prior to his injury, Mayank had taken the IPL 2024 by storm. In just 9 overs bowled, he scalped six wickets at an outstanding bowling average of 9.0 and a phenomenal strike rate of 9.0, leaving a trail of rattled batsmen in his wake. His return is a major boost for the LSG, who lost three out of their last five matches without the 21-year-old.
