Mayank Yadav leaves speedsters in the dust
The fast bowler has left others in the dust. Since his IPL debut on March 30, he’s added 4.44 lakh followers. Meanwhile, other speedsters like Umran Malik (300), Kamlesh Nagarkoti (-400), Kartik Tyagi (200), and Shivam Mavi (50) are down in the dumps.
A rising star a couple of years ago, Umran isn’t even part of the Sunrisers Hyderabad playing XI right now. Others like Nagarkoti, Tyagi, and Mavi have yet to play a match in the ongoing IPL 2024 season. It is safe to say that as of now, no one is catching Mayank Yadav, both in on and off-the-field performances.
