Mayank Yadav was an instrumental find for the LSG camp last year. The right-arm fast bowler has been the talk of the town since his very first match, where he impressed everyone by picking up three wickets for just 27 runs in his four-over spell.
Despite playing just six matches in the last two seasons, the Lucknow-based franchise has backed him for consecutive years. After missing the entire 2024 season and playing just two games in 2025, the Rishabh Pant-led side retained him at a whopping price of ₹11 crore in the IPL 2025 Mega Auction.
Irfan Pathan: He Has Played Just Six Matches in Two Years
Talking about Mayank Yadav’s career and form, Irfan Pathan pointed out that the youngster needs to prove himself, especially after playing just six matches in the last two editions despite being backed by the franchise.
Irfan Pathan Said, "All Eyes will be on Mohammed Shami"
Mohammed Shami has been out of the Indian team for a long period due to injuries and fitness issues since the 2023 World Cup. His growing age and fitness concerns were among the main reasons that led to his exclusion from the BCCI central contract list.
“Their fast bowling is quite strong; they have a lot of options. Mohammed Shami has played a lot of domestic cricket, is in rhythm, and is experienced. Everyone knows that if there are seaming conditions, you can rely on him for a solid two-over spell. Last year, he had to bowl on flat wickets in Hyderabad. I think he will get much more help from the Lucknow pitch,” Pathan added.
Shami, who is likely to spearhead the bowling attack, will have the support of fellow Indian pacers Avesh Khan, Mayank Yadav, Mohsin Khan, Prince Yadav, Arjun Tendulkar, and Naman Tiwari in the IPL 2026 season.Also Read: Mayank Yadav reveals real story behind his recovery and Sanjiv Goenka’s support
