Rattling the batters with his express speed and walking away with the player of the match award after scripting Lucknow Super Giants’ first win of the season, Mayank Yadav could not have dreamt of a better debut in the Indian Premier League (IPL). The 21-year-old right-arm quick did not play a single match in the 2022 edition of the tournament and missed last year’s IPL with a torn hamstring but gave a good account of himself on Saturday. Chasing 200 for victory, Punjab Kings had raced to 102 for no loss in the 12th over when Mayank dismissed Englishman Jonny Bairstow to bring Lucknow back into the contest. He finished with figures of 3-27 to script Lucknow’s victory by 21 runs and cranked up the pace to hit the 155.8 kmph mark in his second over to jolt Punjab batters, who looked ill at ease against him.
