Pesar Mayank of right hand made a comeback after a prolonged pruning. He had to deal with issues related to his back and toe after making his start in the shortest format in October last year.

On Sunday, Yadav returned with 4-0-40-2 figures, accounting for Rohit Sharma (12) and Hardik Pandya (5), the main base of Mumbai Indians, but bowled in the range of 140 kmph, a few clicks from the high level of 150–155kmph in the past.

Zaher told the media after LSG losing MI by 54 runs here, “This wait was long and who is playing after so many months for anyone to come back to the game, (this) always is that a barrier that needs to cross as a bowler,” LSG told MI after playing by 54 runs here.

“I am happy with the way he bowled. It is important that he had to get through the game.

“He (for) (full) stayed at 20 overs. He bowled four overs. The execution is only going to be better. The speed is only better because he plays more, this is the way I am watching it.” Zaheer explained the process of return of Mayank, saying that LSG was alert to not hurry him through procedures and wanted to create a favorable environment around him.

“Even though he had joined the team, we were taking our time to rest our time. I know that fast bowling is never easy, especially in this format when the batsmen are getting very difficult to you. Therefore, this idea process was,” he said.

“I am glad that he has got through the game. That one barrier has been overcome, I hope that with the scheduling that we have, there will be enough break for him to recover for him and then go again.”
