Mayank Yadav was injured again during the IPL 2024 match between Lucknow Super Giants and Mumbai Indians. He couldn't complete his spell and left the field after dismissing Mohammad Nabi with the first ball of his fourth over. There is a possibility that he will miss the remainder of the 17th edition of the IPL.
He impressed with six wickets in two matches against Punjab Kings and Royal Challengers Bengaluru. The young speedster was also named Player of the Match in both competitions.
The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) are planning to offer him a fast bowling contract. Earlier, Umran Malik, Yash Dayal, Akash Deep, and Vyshak Vijaykumar were given fast bowling contracts by the apex body of Indian cricket.
Under this contract, the National Cricket Academy in Bengaluru will manage Mayank's progress.
A BCCI source stated:
“He will be offered a contract by the BCCI. The medical staff at the NCA will take care of his injury management to ensure he is kept fit. The team management is keeping an eye on him and will include the pacer in their plans after he recovers from the lastest injury setback.”
