Team India finally performed like world champions and real contenders and won the T20 series in Zimbabwe. After facing 2 sensational defeats in the last one month, the Indian team, under the captaincy of Shreyas Iyer, defeated Zimbabwe 3-0 in the series. Vaibhav Suryavanshi was the star of this victory of Team India. The 15 year old young opener performed strongly in all three matches and scored the most runs. Despite this excellent performance of Vaibhav, the best news for Team India in this series was fast bowler Mayank Yadav, who not only took wickets but also remained completely fit.
In this series of 3 T20 matches played in Zimbabwe, most eyes were on Vaibhav Suryavanshi, who had made his debut in England but could not get success there. In such a situation, everyone was expecting his success in Zimbabwe. This is what happened and Vaibhav won the Player of the Series award by scoring the highest 151 runs in 3 matches. But 24 year old pacer Mayank Yadav also played a big role in this victory.
There was not much discussion before this series about Mayank Yadav, who is returning to Team India after almost 2 years. There was a reason for that too. Mayank impressed everyone with his surprising debut in IPL 2024. His fast speed was shocking and was creating trouble for the batsmen. Due to this, he also made his debut in T20 International in October 2024. But since then he continued to struggle with injuries. Even in IPL, he spent the next two seasons facing injuries.
In such a situation, there was doubt about the return of this stormy pacer that he might get injured again. Or maybe his speed and sharpness may have diminished due to injury. Mayank responded well with his speed and edge. In the first and last match of the series, he sent Zimbabwe opener Brian Bennett back to the pavilion on the very first ball of the innings. He did such a feat for the third time in his career of just 6 matches. Overall, Mayank took maximum 5 wickets in 3 matches of this series, in which the economy rate was also 6.54.
That is, with his performance Mayank proved that he is still the same fearsome bowler. But the more impressive aspect than his bowling was Mayank's fitness, which was the best news of this tour. While fast bowler Prince Yadav got injured in the second match itself, before that Harshit Rana also became the victim of injury in England, whereas Mayank passed the entire series without any problem, even though there was maximum doubt about his fitness.
Mayank bowled 11 overs in this entire series and continuously bowled at a speed of more than 140 kilometers per hour. Often he touched the speed of 148 to 150 and still remained away from injury. In such a situation, if Mayank's fitness continues to remain intact then he may continue to get opportunities in Team India, which will be important not only for Mayank but also for the team.
