Lucknow Super Giants have replaced Mayank with New Zealand fast bowler William O'Rourke in the squad for the remainder of the league stage and potentially the playoffs. Mayank Yadav played just two matches for Lucknow after being out of the team for a long time due to injury. This is a big setback for the 22-year-old fast bowler who could not handle his body after a brilliant performance in IPL 2024.
