Mayank Yadav, the express pace bowler for Lucknow Super Giants (LSG), encountered another injury scare during IPL 2024 while playing against the Mumbai Indians.

Mayank Yadav’s Injury

Mayank walked off the field after bowling an incomplete fourth over, signaling an injury concern. He had sent down 3.1 overs, conceding 31 runs and taking one wicket before leaving the field. This injury possibly aggravated the same spot that had sidelined him for five games earlier due to abdominal soreness.

Prior History

Before this setback, Mayank had only played three matches in IPL 2024 due to the previous injury. LSG captain KL Rahul mentioned that Mayank complained of pain in his side after delivering the first ball of his fourth over. Consequently, the decision was made not to risk aggravating his condition further.

Post-Match Assessment

LSG head coach Justin Langer expressed concern about Mayank’s injury, mentioning that despite his perfect rehabilitation and pain-free bowling in the past week, the soreness persisted. The team plans to conduct a scan to assess the extent of the injury.

“Looks like he is sore in the same spot. His rehab has been perfect, he bowled pain-free in the last week and looked in great condition. But we’ll have a scan and find out tomorrow,” LSG head coach Justin Langer said after the game.

Mayank’s Performance

Mayank showcased remarkable talent in his initial IPL matches, earning the Player-of-the-Match awards in games against Punjab Kings and Royal Challengers Bengaluru. Despite limited experience in domestic cricket, he impressed with his pace and effectiveness on the field.

During the match against Mumbai Indians, Mayank bowled aggressively, consistently crossing the 150km mark. His first delivery struck Nehal Wadhera’s helmet, displaying his raw pace. However, after completing three overs, he left the field, with Naveen-ul-Haq taking over for the remaining balls of his over.

Despite not showing visible discomfort initially, Mayank was substituted as the Impact Player at the innings break. This decision aimed to prevent further aggravation of his injury and ensure the team’s well-being.
