In the highly anticipated match between Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) and Mumbai Indians (MI) in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024, Mohsin Khan and Marcus Stoinis were the standout performers.

Despite Mayank Yadav‘s return to the game after an injury, he seemed to struggle, bowling 3 overs and only managing to take 1 wicket. He was spotted chatting with Jasprit Bumrah after the match.

Following the match, Mayank made his way back onto the field where he engaged in a conversation with Bumrah, accompanied by fellow LSG pacer Yash Thakur. Bumrah’s firsthand experience with injury setbacks is apparent, having encountered his own hurdles, including missing the IPL and significant tournaments like the 2022 T20 World Cup due to a severe back injury that sidelined him for over a year.

Bumrah was observed sharing bowling advice with Mayank. The newcomer was noted for attentively absorbing every insight from the seasoned Indian bowler. Even Yash, positioned next to Mayank, was seen eagerly embracing Bumrah’s valuable guidance.
