Mayank Yadav could be more dangerous with this unknown arsenal, Steve Smith warns IPL 2024 LSG

Steve Smith on Mayank Yadav: Mayank Yadav has played only two matches in IPL 2024 so far and he is being talked about in the country and abroad. Mayank has surprised everyone with his dangerous pace. Mayank, playing for Lucknow Super Giants, bowled continuously at a speed of more than 150 km per hour in both the matches. Mayank's pace is putting the batsmen in trouble. But Australian legend Steve Smith warned that another hidden weapon of Mayank Yadav could prove to be more dangerous than Paes.

Regarding Mayank, Smith said that teams should not just worry about his speed. In fact, he believes that Mayank's slower ball can prove to be more lethal. “If you look at all those balls, there is not a single slower ball in there, so you don't have to worry about that at this stage,” Smith said on Star Sports. “But maybe you can rely on getting inside the line or use the speed to give yourself room and let him come to you.”

He further said, “The thing that impressed me the most is that he obviously played his debut match recently, he will be praised all around so Mayank Yadav, remember the name.”
