NEW DELHI: In what comes as a great news for Lucknow Super Giants, young pace sensation Mayank Yadav, who got injured earlier this Indian Premeir League season, has passed all the fitness tests.
LSG bowling coach Morne Morkel confirmed the news about the pacer’s availability for their next clash against the five-time champions Mumbai Indians.
The star bowler had suffered a soreness in the lower abdominal area during the match against Gujarat Titans after playing three matches for the franchise.
LSG host Mumbai Indians at Ekana on Tuesday.
“Regarding Mayank Yadav, he has passed all the fitness tests and is in the probable XII for the match against Mumbai Indians. He is looking good and is ready to bowl again,” said Morne Morkel in the pre-match press conference on Monday.
Mayank was also seen bowling in the evening practice session, here at the Ekana Cricket Stadium.
Yadav has so far played three IPL matches and has claimed six wickets, three each against PBKS and RCB. In a match against Gujarat Titans at the Ekana Cricket Stadium, Yadav had to walk off the field after bowling just one over, where he was down on pace and was hit for three boundaries, conceding 13 runs overall.
Lucknow Super Giants face Rajasthan Royals at the Ekana Stadium on Saturday.
