Yash Thakur is a rising star with a knack for taking wickets at crucial moments, Yash Thakur is a fast-bowling prospect for the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) in IPL 2024. This young speedster from Kolkata has been steadily making his mark in the domestic circuit, particularly for Vidarbha. He's known for his right-arm fast-medium pace bowling and his ability to excel in the death overs. Don't be fooled by his medium pace; he can surprise batsmen with his accuracy and zip on the ball.
Yash's breakthrough season came in the 2021-22 Vijay Hazare Trophy, where he topped the wicket-taking charts. His impressive performances in domestic tournaments caught the eye of the Lucknow Super Giants, who retained him ahead of the IPL 2024 season.
While IPL 2024 might be his first taste of the big league, Yash has already shown glimpses of his potential. In the recently concluded Ranji Trophy final, he rattled the Mumbai batting line-up with a match-winning spell.
With the likes of Mohsin Khan and Naveen-ul-Haq in the LSG pace attack, Yash will be looking to learn and contribute to IPL 2024. He's a bowler to watch out for in the future and could be a key player for Lucknow in the upcoming season.
