On Thursday, Yadav moved up to the second spot in the leading bowlers' list with a 4/14 haul against Kolkata Knight Riders at the Wankhede Stadium. He now has 17 wickets at a strike rate of 10.47 as compared to 10.65 of Chahal.
Chasing the target, Delhi reached 150/6 in 19 overs thanks to crucial knocks from David Warner (42 off 28 balls) and Rovman Powell (33 not out off 16 balls), winning the match with six deliveries to spare.
Mustafizur Rahman last featured in the IPL in 2018 for the Mumbai Indians when he had taken seven wickets from as many matches.
The speedster, who once used to dismantle the batsmen with his toe-crushing yorkers, couldn't find the blockhole now and has been rendered being just one of the commoners after undergoing a shoulder surgery in August 2016.
Mustafizur Rahman was named in the squad for the two-Test series in India in November but did not play in either of the Tests because of his poor form.
On Wednesday evening, Rahman took to Twitter to post a selfie along with his teammates before the team's departure and asked his followers to pray for them.
For Bangladesh, Mustafizur Rahman was the pick of the bowler as he ended with the figures of 5 for 59 in his quota of 10 overs.
The two teams come into this game on the back of thrashings at the hands of Australia and India respectively. Still, Bangladesh, by virtue of looking better on both paper and on the field by their recent form will start the match as the favourites.
Mustafizur Rahman held his nerve to bowl a fantastic final over as Bangladesh eked out a three-run win over a gutsy Afghanistan to tay afloat in the race for the Asia Cup final.
BCB President Nazmul Hassan on Saturday said star pacer Mustafizur Rahman will not be allowed to play in foreign T20 leagues.
