The Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy 2026 kicked off on Saturday, November 14. Mayank Yadav emerged as the highlight of the opening round with a magnificent five-wicket haul for Delhi.

The young pacer dismantled Jammu and Kashmir's batting lineup with a match-winning spell, helping Delhi secure a commanding 103-run victory in the Group B fixture in Indore.

Chasing 244, Jammu and Kashmir made a flying start, reaching 47/1 inside four overs. However, Mayank Yadav was introduced into the attack and immediately changed the course of the game.

The pacer struck twice in his first over, first dismantling Shubham Khajuria's stumps before dismissing Vivrant Sharma. He returned in his second over to remove Abdul Samad, putting Jammu and Kashmir under further pressure.

Mayank then dismissed Rydham Sharma to reduce them to 69/5 before returning later to clean up the tail. He castled Brijesh Sharma as Delhi bowled Jammu and Kashmir out for 140, finishing with outstanding figures of 5/14.

Mayank Yadav made a stunning start to his Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy 2026 campaign, returning figures of 5/14 in just three overs for Delhi against Jammu and Kashmir. It was his maiden five-wicket haul in T20 cricket.

The spell also marked the best bowling figures of Mayank's T20 career. His 5/14 became the second-best bowling performance by a Delhi bowler in Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy history, behind Suyash Sharma's 5/13 against Madhya Pradesh in 2023.
