Just as Langer took questions on the team’s opening performance, his phone started ringing, an unintentional distraction that set off chuckles throughout the media room. “<strong>Might be Mayank calling to say he’s ready</strong>,” he quipped, warming up the crowd before delving into the less jovial news.</p><p><strong>Mayank Yadav’s Recovery</strong></p><p>Perhaps the most exciting thing from that press conference was Langer’s positive news of young pace prodigy<a href="https://www.iplt20.com/teams/lucknow-super-giants/squad-details/20585"> Mayank Yadav</a>. Indeed, “<strong>He’s recovering really well. The medical team is happy with his progress, and we’re hopeful of seeing him back in the squad soon</strong>,” Langer said. Yadav, who raised eyebrows this season with his raw pace, had to withdraw at the last minute due to an injury. His comeback is suddenly looking pretty good.</p><p><strong>Also Read: </strong><a href="https://www.cricketwinner.com/cricket-news/ipl-2025-3-players-who-can-replace-rishabh-pant-as-lsg-captain/">IPL 2025: 3 players who can replace Rishabh Pant as LSG captain</a></p><p><strong>The Role of the National Cricket Academy (NCA)</strong></p><p>One of the positives among the many difficulties surrounding the BCCI and Indian cricket was Langer’s commendation of the BCCI’s <a href="https://nationalcricketsacademy.com/">National Cricket Academy</a> (NCA) in Bengaluru, where Mayank has been rehabilitating. We hope that the NCA is indeed a center of excellence. “<strong>The NCA is truly a center of excellence. Their facilities and expertise have been instrumental in Mayank’s recovery</strong>,” Langer noted. He went on to underscore the vital role of such infrastructure in making sure players come back not just sooner but better and fully ready to play. </p><p><strong>Follow<strong> </strong>for more:<strong> </strong></strong><a href="https://www.cricketwinner.com/">https://www.cricketwinner.com/</a></p><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">A phone call in the middle of the press conference 📞<br><br>Good news on Mayank Yadav's recovery 📰<br><br>And the importance of National Cricket Academy (BCCI's COE) 👏<br><br>🎥 <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/LSG?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#LSG</a> Head Coach, Justin Langer, has a field day at the post-match press conference 😊<a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/TATAIPL?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#TATAIPL</a> | <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/LSGvMI?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#LSGvMI</a> <a href="https://t.co/JAolaa5GTo">pic.twitter.com/JAolaa5GTo</a></p>— IndianPremierLeague (@IPL) <a href="https://twitter.com/IPL/status/1908233760870461869?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">April 4, 2025</a></blockquote><p><strong>Also Read: </strong><a href="https://www.cricketwinner.com/cricket-news/ipl-2025-pbks-vs-rr-new-chandigarh-stadium-stats-and-status-preview/">IPL 2025: PBKS vs RR – New Chandigarh stadium stats and status preview</a></p><p>If fit, Mayank’s return will be a massive boost for the Lucknow side, who will hope to build some momentum as the tournament progresses towards the business end of the season.

Langer’s entertaining press conference didn’t just provide a comedic diversion, though; it instilled optimism.
