Mayank Yadav finds himself at 4th spot in this list.

Mayank Yadav made a memorable debut for Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) against Punjab Kings (PBKS) on Saturday, March 30, as he bowled the fastest delivery of IPL 2024.

Mayank Yadav ended with impressive figures of 3/27, disrupting the entire Punjab Kings’ batting lineup and playing a crucial role in the Lucknow Super Giants‘ 21-run victory.

Mayank Yadav set a new benchmark in speed with a lightning-fast delivery clocked at 155.8 kmph, securing the top three spots for the fastest deliveries in IPL 2024, eclipsing Nandre Burger’s prior record of 153 km/h.
