23-year-old Delhi pacer Prince Yadav was picked by the Lucknow Super Giants for the IPL 2025 season after he had made a promising start to the Delhi Premier League. His performance looked convincing with the Delhi team before being recognized by the Rishabh Pant-led side.
"When I started taking wickets, I got a contract worth 30 lakh, which was a big step. Vijay Dahiya sir, who was part of the LSG support staff as assistant coach, also guided me a lot," he added.
"When I was very young, my favourite bowler was Brett Lee, but later Dale Steyn became my idol. I loved his aggression. I haven't met him yet, but I would love to meet him someday and take bowling tips from him," Prince said

He played in just 6 games and has picked 3 wickets in the season, as he dismissed the likes of Travis Head, Will Jacks, and Nehal Wadhera in the season. Prince was also Delhi's highest wicket-taker in the Vijay Hazare Trophy.
"Whenever I felt doubt or pressure at any point, I would talk to him, and he would immediately clear it for me. He knows how to bounce back. Even if he wasn't performing at times, he never let it affect the team or himself. He kept the same bonding with everyone, the same energy, and always stayed positive," he said.

"Zaheer sir has always backed me and taught me valuable lessons. Even as a net bowler, I bowled to almost all the players, and this year, as part of the main squad, I bowled to everyone in matches too. I even managed to dismiss some big names," the fast bowler added.
