Prince Yadav

Prince Yadav is a right-arm fast bowler from Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh, born on December 12, 2001. He made his first-class debut for Delhi in January 2024 against Jammu and Kashmir, and his List A debut in November 2022 for Uttar Pradesh against Tripura. In the 2024–25 Vijay Hazare Trophy, he was Delhi's leading wicket-taker, claiming 11 wickets in six matches at an average of 22.00. His performances in domestic cricket, including 13 wickets in 10 matches during the 2024 Delhi Premier League, earned him recognition as a promising pace bowler.

​In the 2025 IPL auction, Yadav was acquired by Lucknow Super Giants for ₹30 lakh. He made his IPL debut on March 24, 2025, against Delhi Capitals. In his second match, he claimed his maiden IPL wicket by dismissing Travis Head and finished with figures of 1/29, showcasing his potential at the highest level.

​Yadav's ability to generate extra bounce and deliver effective yorkers has made him a valuable asset in both the powerplay and death overs. His consistent performances in domestic circuits and early impact in the IPL suggest a promising future in Indian cricket.
