The IPL 2024 season is not over yet. However, it’s likely to be over for Mayank Yadav and Deepak Chahar who have been injured in the game.
Chennai Super Kings faced a setback as their star pacer, Deepak Chahar, left the field due to injury during their IPL 2024 encounter against Punjab Kings at Chepauk.
Chahar, being the one to bowl as an opener, halted his run-up after the second delivery of the second innings due to discomfort.
In a similar Fashion, Lucknow Super Giants’ Mayank Yadav had to walk off the field while still bowling his fourth over due to soreness in his abdomen.
Mayank Yadav being neglected?
LSG’s young pacer had already missed three weeks of IPL2024. This was because he developed abdominal soreness in LSG’s match against Gujarat Titans on April 7.Â
The match was his third IPL match, and he impressed everyone with his 155kph balls. Yadav won his second Player Of The Match title for IPL 2024 in that match.
However, he made a comeback in LSG’s win against Mumbai Indians in Lucknow on Tuesday but walked off the field without completing his fourth over after an injury scare.
Former pacing legend Brett Lee had blamed LSG’s captain KL Rahul and medical staff for the negligence and overworking Mayank by not giving him enough resting time to recover.
LSG coach said this about Yadav’s injury
LSG coach Justin Langer said the young pace sensation is feeling “sore in the same spot” that kept him out of action for almost three weeks.
LSG captain KL Rahul that added that Mayank had complained of slight pain in his sides.
Deepak Chahar’s Condition
Chennai Super Kings has fallen short on luck as their already weak bowling lineup has lost their star pacer to injury.
The player sustained an injury in his hamstrings as CSK was playing against Punjab Kings at Chepauk. Chahar’s spot was filled in by Shardul, and the pacer did not return for the rest of that match.
Deepak has had a long term battle with his hamstring injury, due to which he couldn’t even take part in IPL 2022.
From what we can gather, Chahar seems to have injured himself while completing the run-up following the second ball of the first over.
