It is worth noting that the formalities for Morkel to become the new bowler of the Indian cricket team are almost complete, but his appointment has not been done yet.

Along with this, there is not much stress on his body and he can give his 100% to the game. Morkel said in his statement, “The first thing I look for in a fast bowler is his speed. Then you see the bowling of Mayank Yadav who is continuously bowling at a fast pace of around 150. This power of his is troubling even the best batsmen. When you have that X factor, then you don’t need to think about anything.

You give him a chance and that too in T-20 cricket so that there is not much pressure on his body and everything remains fine.” “Now the most important thing for Mayank is to gain experience and play as many matches as possible. He is bowling at a speed of more than 150, this is not common. Therefore, things have to be kept as simple as possible for them. When he bowled at high speed in the warm-up match, the entire team was excited to see him. We have to manage him properly, from his workload to his recovery, training and routine.”
