Mayank Yadav emerged as India's latest fast-bowling sensation, showcasing his searing pace with figures of 3/27, as Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) convincingly defeated Punjab Kings (PBKS) by 21 runs in the Indian Premier League match on Saturday in Lucknow.
Opting to bat first, LSG benefited from a late onslaught by Krunal Pandya, who hammered a quickfire 43 off just 22 balls, propelling the team to a competitive total of 199/8. Quinton de Kock led the batting charge with a brisk 54 off 38 balls, while Nicholas Pooran's aggressive 42 off 21 balls injected vitality into the innings during the middle overs.
