Mayank Yadav, the latest sensation in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024, showcased his immense talent once again during the clash between Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) and Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) on Tuesday. The young pacer delivered a fiery spell of fast bowling, rattling the RCB batting line-up and leading his team to a convincing victory at the M.Chinnaswamy Stadium.
Mayank Yadav’s dazzling performance
The fast bowler picked up three crucial wickets and conceded only 14 runs, displaying exceptional control and speed throughout his spell. He unleashed a barrage of deliveries clocking over 150 kmph, leaving the RCB batters struggling to cope with his pace.
Dismisses Cameron Green with a thunderbolt
One of the highlights of Mayank’s spell was his dismissal of RCB all-rounder Cameron Green with a thunderous delivery. On the fourth delivery of the eighth over, Mayank unleashed a searing short of a good length ball that clocked a staggering 156.7 kmph. Green, caught off guard by the sheer pace, failed to read the delivery and ended up losing his off-stump. Mayank’s celebration was a testament to the impact of his delivery.
