India's 156.7 Kmph Pace Sensation Mayank Yadav Walks Off Field Mid-Match. Report Says...
Pace sensation Mayank Yadav on Sunday suffered a side strain and left the field after bowling just one over for Lucknow Super Giants in their IPL match against Gujarat Titans. The 21-year-old came to bowl in the fourth over of Titans' chase of 164, but he could clock in excess of 140 kmph only twice in the over before walking off the field with the LSG physio. He conceded 13 runs in that over and did not return to the field thereafter, even as LSG registered a 33-run win over GT. Later, Lucknow all-rounder Krunal Pandya said the young pacer seemed alright after coming off the field. "I had a brief chat (with Mayank) and he seemed okay, which is a positive. "Whatever conversation I have had, whatever we see, he has a good head on his shoulder. Really excited to see how his career pans out," said Krunal in the post-match presentation ceremony.
