LSG pacer Mayank Yadav rattled the RCB batters and silenced the roaring crowd at the Chinnaswamy Stadium with a delivery that clocked an astonishing 156.7kph. This was the fastest ball of IPL 2024 as Mayank rewrote the record books with his blistering pace. The young LSG pacer unleashed a ferocious delivery that zipped through the air, leaving the batsman, and indeed everyone watching, in awe. Earlier in the tournament, he had already made headlines by firing nine deliveries over 150 kmph in a single match, picking up three crucial wickets and conceding only 27 runs, leading LSG to their first win of the season against Punjab Kings. His performance was so impressive that it caught the attention of cricket legends like Brett Lee and Dale Steyn, who praised the young Indian pacer for his raw pace and potential.

Mayank dismissed Glenn Maxwell for a duck with a thunderous delivery clocked at 151kph to send shockwaves through the stadium. Maxwell, one of the world’s finest batters, could only manage a feeble attempt, flapping the ball to mid-on. As Mayank Yadav continued his onslaught, he swiftly removed Cameron Green, further denting RCB’s batting lineup. The Chinnaswamy Stadium fell into a deathly silence, with spectators and players alike awestruck by Mayank Yadav’s sheer pace and control.

Mayank Yadav’s ability to consistently hit such high speeds forced batsmen to rethink their strategies on the fly, highlighting the immense pressure he exerted on the opposition.

With every delivery, spectators found themselves glancing up at the screens in anticipation of the next blistering pace Yadav would unleash. In a game where anticipation often precedes action, Yadav’s performance was a stark reminder of the immense impact sheer pace can have on the outcome of a match.
