LSG Coach Justin Langer Attends Call From Journalist’s Mother During Press Conference. Video Viral

Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) head coach Justin Langer was above the moon after the victory of his team over the Mumbai Indians (IPL) in their 2025 game. Langer was in a cheerful mood during the post-match press conference, and he attended a telephone call from one of the journalists. The former Australian opener took the journalist’s permission and attended the call, who was the mother of the last. After talking to the journalist’s mother, Langer provided a fitness update on the Pacer Lsg Mayank Yadav.

Langer asked: “Who is Maa?” “Mom, it is 12:08 pm, I am at a press conference,” said changing after taking permission to speak.

Speaking after the fascinating victory of LSG against the Indians of Mumbai on Friday evening, Langer seemed optimistic about the recovery of Mayank. “Mayank is operational, which is really great for Indian cricket and for IPL. I saw a video of him yesterday at the Bowling at the NCA. He has a bowling at around 90 to 95%,” said Languer at the post-match press conference.

“We saw the impact he had last year. I don’t think there was a bowling player in India who is faster than Mayank Yadav – that’s why there are so many discussions about him.”

Mayank was sidelined with a back injury and was about to come back earlier this season before a bizarre toe injury – suffered after cutting her against her bed – caused an infection that has further delayed his return. Although Langer did not provide a final return date, he indicated that the Pace is closer to a highly anticipated return.

“He is eager to start. The NCA has done an excellent job with our quisors-they obtained the back Avesh Khan and Akash for us, and now, let’s hope, Mayank too,” he added.

The 21 -year -old Speedster took the IPL last season with its raw rhythm and its capacity to take the counter, which constantly blocks speeds greater than 150 km / h. His return will be a massive boost for LSG, which had to manage a range of bowling seriously exhausted since the start of IPL 2025.

The LSG injury crisis began before the opening of the season with Mohin Khan, Mayank, Avesh Khan and Akash Deep, all unavailable. The franchise brought the veteran Shardul Thakur to strengthen the attack, and this decision paid dividends. Thakur picked up seven gohets in four games, including a 19th defining the matches against Mumbai, where he only gave seven points despite the dangerous duo of Hhelik Pandya and Tilak Varma.
