Mayank Markande left the cricketing world in awe with his spin bowling

In addition to Dwayne Bravo's blitzkrieg, the first match of this year's IPL had also witnessed the emergence of Mayank Markande. This 20-year-old spinner from Punjab stunned the fans and experts alike with his exquisite show of spin bowling.

With little experience at his back, Markande made his debut for Mumbai Indians against a batting unit that boasted some big names in the shortest format of the game.

The young leggie, however, astonished everyone as he struck gold right away when he caught Ambati Rayudu leg before in front of the stumps. Markande went on to deliver a magical spell and even accounted for the prized scalp of MS Dhoni. His match figures of 4 overs for 23 runs and 2 wickets speak volumes about his talent and make him one to look out for the future.

Also, Markande followed up his dream debut with another bamboozling spell against Sunrisers Hyderabad when he ended up picking 4 wickets.
