Mayank Yadav Player Profile

Mayank Yadav is an express fast bowler from Delhi who has taken the IPL by storm with his raw pace and ability to consistently breach the 150kph barrier. The 24-year-old right-arm quick was picked up by Lucknow Super Giants ahead of IPL 2022 but had to wait for his opportunity, missing the entire first season and then sitting out the next due to a hamstring injury. When he finally made his IPL debut in 2024, he announced himself in spectacular fashion, picking up 3 for 27 against Punjab Kings with a top speed of 155.8kph. He went one better in his second game, delivering a fiery spell of 3 for 14 against Royal Challengers Bengaluru while clocking 156.7kph, making him the first player in IPL history to win Player-of-the-Match awards in each of his first two appearances. Despite injury setbacks that have limited his game time, including a back injury in 2025, Mayank remains a prized asset for LSG, who have retained him on multiple occasions, including a lucrative INR 11 crore contract ahead of the 2025 mega auction.
