Yadav has taken 6 wickets in 3 IPL games at an economy of 6, with consistent 150+ deliveries. 

His spells have gained a lot of applauds from cricket experts and fans and a few of them demanding Yadav’s inclusion in India’s T20 World Cup squad.  

However, the speedster suffered an injury after the third game, and missed LSG’s next 5 games due to abdominal strain.  

He was seen bowling at the nets last week and Lucknow’s coach Morne Morkel on Monday has confirmed Mayank’s completely fitness news ahead of the mega clash against Mumbai Indians on Tuesday. 

LSG, who have won 5 games in their 9 outings so far and are sitting in fifth spot on the points table, will benefit from Yadav’s inclusion in the team for the clash against MI. 

With Rohit Sharma, the regular skipper of team India, is a part of Mumbai Indians, it is a good chance for young Mayank Yadav to impress the national team’s skipper.  

The T20 World Cup squad for India will be announced on May 1, and many believe Mayank’s deserves a spot in it. Yadav has all the qualities to be in India’s squad; yet his lack of big stage experience stands in the way of his selection.
