International career

• 2024: Mayank made his international debut in a T20I match against Bangladesh. In his first series, he took four wickets with an economy rate of 6.91. His debut was memorable, as he started with a maiden over, showing his potential early on.

• Mid-2024: After suffering an abdominal strain, Mayank had to go through a rehab process at the Centre of Excellence (CoE). During his return to action, he played four matches and took seven wickets, which strengthened his chances for future opportunities in the Indian team.
