IPL 2024: RCB Pacer Dinesh Karthik in banter with Nasser Hussain About Mayank Yadav
IPL 2024: RCB star player Dinesh Karthik got involved in some banter with former England captain Nasser Hussain while discussing his encounter against LSG pacer Mayank Yadav.
Finisher Karthik heaped praise on the young fast-bowler while revealing what makes him special. Mayank bowled the fastest delivery of IPL 2024 against RCB last week, clocking in at 56.7 km/h. He went on to claim 6 wickets in 3 matches before picking up a slight injury against GT on Sunday, April 7.
Speaking to Hussain and former England captain Michael Atherton on Sky Sports, Dinesh Karthik said the length at which Mayank bowls is what makes him special while calling him the fastest bowler.

Mayank set the record for the quickest delivery of the season on his debut match against Punjab and broke his won record in his next match against RCB. Apart from bowling above 150 km/h, Mayank was also spot on with his line and length, picking up 6 wickets while giving away just 41 runs in the first two matches. He leaked 13 runs against Gujarat Titans before walking off the field with a slight niggle.
“Very quick. Luckily or unluckily, I got out to him on the second ball. Thanks to technology I skipped that bullet, just went over the stumps. The umpire gave it out. He’s quick, he’s sharp. But the good thing about him, generally people who come and bowl at that kind of pace over some time are very inconsistent with their length,” said Karthik.
“He’s good with his length, which is what makes him special. So far, he’s the quickest bowler I have faced this year. It was a bit like, wow, that’s sharp,” Karthik added.
The former England captain also teased Karthik for leaving the first ball he faced from Mayank, while Karthik said that he was thinking of Hussain when Mayank was running into to bowl. Karthik left the first ball he faced from Mayank, before being dismissed by Naveen-ul-Haq in the next over.
“When the bowler was running I was thinking about you for a second there, so I went for the back-foot leave,” Karthk told Hussain.
Mayank is expected to be back in action during the LSG vs DC match on Friday, April 12 at Ekana Stadium in Lucknow.
