New DelhiIn the practice session before the match in Pune, there was one player who was not going to play in the match, yet all eyes were on his bowling. This bowler is Mayank Yadav. Recently Mayank was added to the Indian team and he is with the team for two consecutive tests. Even Australia has not remained untouched by the speed with which Mayank is bowling in the nets and the way his bowling is improving under the supervision of Morni Markle.
Former Australian fast bowler Brett Lee believes that Mayank Yadav is a complete package of fast bowling and if he is selected on the Australia tour, he will not miss Shami. Lee also believes that he can perform well on Australian pitches. Brett Lee told Fox Cricket, 'The best thing about me is that I work continuously in the IPL and I have trained many good young Indian players. Have seen him playing. I saw Mayank Yadav in his first match and the young player bowled smoothly at a speed of 157 KMPH in his very first match.
The one who debuted in Australia rules world cricket
If Mayank is selected for Australia, a trick will remain with him. The Indian fast bowlers who made their debut in Australia, later made a distinct identity for themselves in world cricket. In 2016, Jasprit Bumrah made his T20 debut in Australia and today he is the number 1 bowler in the world. Siraj made his Test debut in Australia in 2020 and took five wickets for the first time on this tour. Ishant Sharma also made his debut in Australia in 2008 and left a big impact from his first match. Mayank also has all the qualities that can make him a great bowler, all that is needed is to give him a chance at the right place.
