Following his stellar performance in the Asia Cup, Kuldeep Yadav’s brilliance has extended to the Test series. On the opening day of the Ahmedabad Test, the left-arm spinner bamboozled West Indies’ wicketkeeper and their best batsman, Shai Hope. Yadav delivered a ball that left Hope bewildered, a delivery that could be compared to Shane Warne’s best. Yadav’s magical delivery came in the 24th over. He pitched the ball wide outside off stump, tempting Hope to drive. However, the ball spun sharply, catching the inside edge of the bat and crashing into the stumps. Hope was completely unaware of how his off-stump was dismantled. He was left in a state of disbelief. The video of Kuldeep Yadav’s mesmerizing delivery has gone viral on social media. Yadav has returned to the Test match playing eleven after 347 days. While he was included in the England tour, he remained on the bench for all five Test matches. However, Yadav persevered and showcased his skills in the Asia Cup, where he took 17 wickets and was the tournament’s best bowler. He’s now demonstrating his prowess in the Test series against the West Indies.
