India vs Sri Lanka 2017: 3rd ODI, 5 things we learnt from the match

#4 Kuldeep impresses after coming back in

Kuldeep Yadav was difficult to pick and bowled beautifully in the decider

Kolkata Knight Riders' chinaman spinner had missed the second ODI and hadn't bowled in the first where India lost even before the spinners could come into the attack. However, on a sluggish Visakhapatnam wicket, Kuldeep was back in the scheme of things and troubled Sri Lanka with his variations.

While Chahal went for a few runs early, Kuldeep contained, bowled beautifully, and set back the run rate. He accounted for the vital scalps of Upul Tharanga, who was in a rampant mood, and Niroshan Dickwella, one of Lanka's best batsmen in recent times. He added one more late in the innings to finish with three in the game.
