Lucknow Super Giants' (LSG) 23-year-old pacer Prince Yadav made a stunning IPL debut, dismissing Travis Head with a yorker and playing a key role in Heinrich Klaasen’s run-out. The Delhi-based bowler, signed for ₹30 lakh, impressed in the Delhi Premier League and Vijay Hazare Trophy. His spell of 1/29 earned praise from mentor Zaheer Khan and a standing ovation from LSG owner Sanjiv Goenka. Sunil Gavaskar lauded his control and variation. Despite Yadav’s heroics, Shardul Thakur’s four-wicket haul restricted SRH to 190/9. LSG captain Rishabh Pant’s gamble with Yadav proved to be a masterstroke. (PC: X/Lucknow Super Giants)
