Prince Yadav’s Bowling Style
Prince Yadav is a right-arm fast bowler who relies heavily on his ability to generate speed, consistently clocking deliveries in the mid-130s to low-140s kmph range.
His high-arm action, paired with a smooth run-up, allows him to extract extra bounce from the pitch, a trait that has been particularly effective on Indian wickets, which often assist pacers with carry.
His pace and ability to generate bounce make him a valuable asset for his team. In IPL 2025, he has been primarily utilized as a fast bowler for Lucknow Super Giants.
Sports career of Prince Yadav

Prince Yadav’s journey from the local cricket grounds of Delhi to the bright lights of the IPL is a story of pure determination and raw talent.
Yadav’s journey started in Delhi’s local cricket circuits, where his raw pace and bounce stood out. His big moment came in 2024 when he debuted for Delhi in the Ranji Trophy, showing he could both take wickets (2/42) and score quick runs (33*).
But T20 cricket is where he really exploded. In the 2023 UP T20 League, he smashed 332 runs at a strike rate of 131 while taking crucial wickets. His 2024 Delhi Premier League performance (13 wickets in 10 games) proved he could dominate the shortest format.
Now, after impressing in the Vijay Hazare Trophy (11 wickets in 6 games), Yadav’s IPL dream has come true. LSG grabbed him for just ₹30 lakh – what a steal! In his debut against Sunrisers Hyderabad, he showed nerves of steel, bowling tightly and dismissing Travis Head.
What makes Yadav special? Blistering pace, smart bowling, and handy batting – the perfect modern cricketer. At just 23, this Delhi boy is just getting started. Watch out, world – Prince Yadav is coming!
