In the Indian Premier League (IPL) match at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium, Mayank Yadav delivered thunderbolts that made Australian batters Glenn Maxwell and Cameron Green look like greenhorns. The sheer pace of Mayank was a sight to behold as the right-arm pacer ran in and bowled ferocious delivery, one after another.
