Rohit Sharma removed by Mayank Yadav (Source: OneCricketApp/X.com)
Mayank Yadav is arguably the fastest bowler in India currently, and first grabbed the limelight in IPL 2024 with two back-to-back four-wicket hauls. His ability to bowl over 155 Kph consistently impressed everyone, and the man soon played for India in T20Is.
India's Fastest Bowler Produces Clever Slower One To Remove Rohit Sharma
He delivered impactful performances in his maiden international series as well, but was soon sidelined due to injury and has now finally returned to competitive cricket against Mumbai Indians. He is known for his speed and genuine wicket-taking ability, and Pant decided to unleash him in the very first over of the match.
The opening over went without much drama, but the second over against Rohit Sharma was an absolute cinema. He was hit for two consecutive sixes, but Mayank made a stunning comeback to remove Rohit with a slower one and provided LSG with a much-needed breakthrough.

The two sixes were followed by two dot balls, and then Mayank Yadav unleashed a beautiful slower delivery. He bowled it on a length, outside off. Rohit Sharma tried to cut it, but the lack of pace did not help his cause. The ball caught a thick outside edge of the blade and Prince Yadav took a sharp catch at short third man.
Rohit Sharma fell early, but Ryan Rickelton continued his onslaught and got to his second fifty of the season to keep MI going. The five-time champions are on a four-match winning streak, and are suddenly looking like a team to beat, while LSG have also played decent cricket. The match has started off on an exciting note, and we can expect both teams to exchange plenty of blows throughout the course of the encounter.
