Kuldeep Yadav is becoming a star right in front of our eyes

The moment Kuldeep Yadav entered competitive cricket he garnered several eyeballs thanks to his unorthodox bowling style. The chinaman then gained further attention when he enjoyed a dream debut as he picked up four wickets on day one of a Test. Thus, plenty of eyes were closely watching him as he played his first match of this season.

And Kuldeep Yadav didn’t disappoint his fans. He bowled with control and made batting difficult that offered little help for bowlers. In the first over, he was smacked by McCullum but the chinaman bowler came back strongly and gave away only 13 runs in his next three overs. He got McCullum’s wicket on a straighter one and his googly was instrumental in getting rid of Aaron Finch.

Due to Kuldeep’s stunning performance in the middle overs, KKR managed to restrict Gujarat Lions below 200.
