<h2>The dismissal of Nicholas Pooran by Kuldeep Yadav even left lasting damage on the stumps. There was even a pause in play to replace the equipment.</h2>

Kuldeep Yadav&rsquo;s critical role in the Delhi Capitals lineup was emphatically highlighted during their IPL match against the Lucknow Super Giants. Coming back after a three-game absence due to a groin injury, Yadav wasted no time demonstrating his impact, striking crucial blows in his very first over back on the field.
The match saw Yadav being introduced into the Capitals&rsquo; bowling attack during the 8th over. The left-arm wrist spinner&rsquo;s presence was immediately felt as he dismissed two key LSG batters: Marcus Stoinis and Nicholas Pooran. Yadav&rsquo;s delivery to Pooran was particularly notable, a masterclass of spin bowling that would be envied by any spinner.
Stoinis was the first to fall victim to Yadav's strategic bowling. Anticipating a big hit from the Australian all-rounder, Yadav cleverly delivered the ball wide. Stoinis&rsquo; aggressive attempt to clear the boundary resulted in a leading edge, which was adeptly caught by Ishant Sharma at backward point. Following Stoinis, Nicholas Pooran, one of LSG&rsquo;s top performers this season with a strike rate of 168, came to the crease.
Unbeknownst to Pooran, a devastating delivery was heading his way. Yadav served up a perfect googly that landed just outside the off stump. Pooran, failing to read the spin from Yadav&rsquo;s hand, mistakenly played for the turn, only to see the ball crash into his stumps, sending him back to the pavilion without scoring.

The dismissal of Pooran was so impactful that it damaged the stumps, requiring a pause in play to address the equipment damage. Yet, Yadav was not finished showcasing his skills. He nearly claimed the wicket of LSG captain KL Rahul in the same over, but the ball was adjudged to have pitched outside the line. Undeterred, Yadav continued his assault in his subsequent over, delivering a flatter ball that turned away from Rahul. The LSG captain, attempting an aggressive shot, managed only an under edge, which was pouched safely by captain Rishabh Pant.
The on-field umpire initially gave it not out, but Rishabh Pant, the Delhi Capitals captain, was prompt to challenge the decision and it was eventually overturned in DC's favour.

IPL 2024: Kuldeep Yadav shines in comeback game but Ayush Badoni's brilliant fifty rescues LSG against DC

Kuldeep Yadav marked his return from injury with a spectacular bowling show but Ayush Badoni's exceptional half-century rescued LSG from a precarious 94/7.

<h2>Ayush Badoni put together an unbeaten 73-run partnership with Arshad Khan, the highest for the 8th wicket in IPL history that took LSG beyond their much-famed 160-run mark.&nbsp;</h2>

Kuldeep Yadav marked his return from injury with a spectacular bowling performance for the Delhi Capitals but despite his efforts, Ayush Badoni's exceptional half-century ensured the Lucknow Super Giants reached a competitive total of 167 after being 94/7 at one stage of the innings.
The match began with LSG choosing to bat first and getting off to a promising start. However, the early dismissals of Quinton de Kock and Devdutt Paddikal brought LSG to a precarious position at 41/2. It seemed an opportune moment for KL Rahul and Marcus Stoinis to build a significant partnership. But their hopes were dashed when Kuldeep Yadav, returning to the lineup after missing three games, was introduced into the attack.
Kuldeep, a left-arm wrist spinner, quickly made a substantial impact by dismissing Marcus Stoinis and then sending Nicholas Pooran back to the pavilion for a golden duck with a delivery that breached his defenses and bowled him. In his following over, Kuldeep continued his dominance by claiming the wicket of LSG captain KL Rahul, significantly setting back LSG's innings. His performance, which included figures of 3/20 without conceding a boundary, was a timely reminder of his skills ahead of the T20 World Cup selections, emphasizing his case for inclusion in the team headed to the West Indies and the USA.
Following Rahul&rsquo;s dismissal, LSG&rsquo;s woes intensified as both Deepak Hooda and Krunal Pandya fell quickly, leaving the team struggling at 94/7. At this juncture, Delhi appeared to have a firm grip on the match. However, Ayush Badoni had other plans. The young batter stepped up under pressure, crafting a masterful fifty that shifted the momentum. His resilience was on full display as he forged a crucial unbeaten 74-run partnership with Arshad Khan, propelling LSG past the formidable 160-run threshold&mdash;a score from which LSG has never lost when batting first.
Badoni&rsquo;s innings not only salvaged LSG&rsquo;s position but also highlighted his potential as a reliable finisher capable of turning games around. His performance frustrated the Delhi Capitals, who had earlier seemed poised to restrict LSG to a much lower score.

With Mitchell Marsh sidelined, the Delhi Capitals are considering bolstering their batting lineup by potentially introducing Australian batter James Fraser-McGurk to IPL action.

<h2>With Mitchell Marsh sidelined, the Delhi Capitals are considering bolstering their batting lineup by potentially introducing Australian batter James Fraser-McGurk to IPL action.</h2>

As the Delhi Capitals gear up for their much-anticipated IPL 2024 clash against the Mumbai Indians on Sunday afternoon, all eyes are on star spinner Kuldeep Yadav, who is slated for a crucial fitness evaluation. The team's Director of Cricket, Sourav Ganguly, disclosed in a media briefing that Yadav's participation hinges on a fitness test scheduled for Saturday, due to concerns over groin stiffness that sidelined him for the last two matches.
"He (Kuldeep) will undergo a fitness test today. He has a little bit of groin stiffness (and) that's why he missed the last two games. By the end of the day, we'll get to know whether he's available tomorrow or not,&rdquo; Ganguly stated, emphasizing the uncertainty surrounding Yadav's availability for the upcoming game.
In a related development, Delhi Capitals' camp faces another challenge as all-rounder Mitchell Marsh is set to miss the Sunday game against Mumbai Indians. Ganguly confirmed the unfortunate news, attributing Marsh's absence to an injury sustained during the match against the Kolkata Knight Riders. The loss of Marsh, a pivotal figure in the team's lineup, presents a significant setback for the Capitals as they navigate through the tournament.
With Marsh sidelined, the Delhi Capitals are considering bolstering their batting lineup by potentially introducing Australian batter James Fraser-McGurk to IPL action. Fraser-McGurk's potential debut could inject fresh energy into the team and offer a new dynamic as they seek to maintain their momentum in IPL 2024.
The situation around Kuldeep Yadav's fitness and Marsh's injury has placed the Delhi Capitals in a position where strategic adjustments and player fitness will play critical roles in their campaign. With 3 losses in 4 games already, the Capitals will be hoping their star spinner is available to boost their morale in the bottom-of-the-table clash with the Mumbai Indians.

IPL 2024: Delhi Capitals' Kuldeep Yadav advised rest after picking up niggle in second game

Since he is a centrally-contracted player and a T20 World Cup hopeful, National Cricket Academy's sports science and medical team will have a big say in Kuldeep's injury and rehab management.

Indian spinner Kuldeep Yadav is nursing a groin niggle and has been advised rest as a precautionary measure by the Delhi Capitals team management in the ongoing Indian Premier League.
The 29-year-old left-arm spinner picked up the niggle after DC's second game of the season against Rajasthan Royals in Jaipur, which the team lost.
The player was forced to miss out on the next couple of contests where veteran pacer Ishant Sharma returned to the playing XI.
"It will take some time for him to be match fit," an IPL source told PTI when asked about Kuldeep's status.
Since he is a centrally-contracted player and a T20 World Cup hopeful, National Cricket Academy's sports science and medical team will have a big say in Kuldeep's injury and rehab management.
It is mandatory for franchises to report niggles and injury concerns of an India player to the NCA.
Although he has been travelling with the side for all the clashes, his participation in DC's upcoming tie against Mumbai Indians on Sunday remains doubtful.
Kuldeep has picked up three wickets in two matches at an economy of 7.62.
He has been on a wicket-taking spree, coming off a great performance in the five-Test series against England that concluded last month, where he claimed 19 wickets in four meetings at an average of 20.15.

<h2>"It has been seven years since my debut. I have become a lot more mature about my bowling. I understand my game a lot better now" - Kuldeep Yadav said after his 5-wicket haul in Dharamsala</h2>

Kuldeep Yadav's journey back to Dharamsala, the site of his Test debut in 2017, marks a poignant moment of reflection and resurgence for the left-arm wrist spinner. Over the past seven years, Kuldeep has encountered a series of ups and downs in his career. However, his recent performances suggest he has rediscovered his form, attributing this success to a deeper understanding of his craft and improved physical fitness.
"It was an interesting phase. It has been seven years since (debut). I have become a lot more mature about my bowling. I understand my game a lot better now. I know how to read the wicket," Kuldeep remarked, highlighting his growth and maturity as a player.
Regular participation in the ongoing series has significantly boosted Kuldeep's confidence. Despite having only 12 Test appearances over seven years, including four consecutive matches in the current series against England, Kuldeep's recent spell on the opening day of the fifth Test showcased his enhanced skills, claiming five top-order wickets.
"If you play regularly, you get more confident about your bowling. Game awareness also comes with it. It is very important to keep playing regularly as it makes your bowling sharp," Kuldeep expressed, emphasizing the importance of consistent game time for a player's development.
Kuldeep's journey has not been without its challenges. Inconsistent opportunities, a dip in form, and a knee surgery have tested his resolve. Yet, through technical adjustments and a targeted fitness regimen, Kuldeep has managed to regain his magic. He noted the changes in his bowling approach, particularly in Ranchi, where he adapted his run-up to the crease's pace, reflecting his commitment to continuous improvement.
"Following a knee surgery in September 2021, Kuldeep changed his fitness routine, increased his pace and straightened his run-up," he shared, underscoring the link between fitness and performance. His efforts paid off with a five-wicket haul against England, demonstrating his ability to adapt and thrive.
Kuldeep's ability to extract more turn and drift from flat pitches sets him apart from his peers, a skill he displayed spectacularly against Zak Crawley. His approach to bowling, focusing on length, speed variation, and utilizing drift, showcases his tactical acumen and physical preparedness.

Kuldeep Yadav may be the 3rd-choice Indian spinner in Tests after R Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja but whenever he gets a chance, the 29-year-old makes sure to give it his best.
The chinaman from UP rattled England in the 1st innings of the 5th Test by picking up his fourth 5-wicket-haul in Test cricket. The first 4 English batters to fall were all bamboozled by Kuldeep, that after the visitors had a solid 64-run opening stand.
Interestingly, he is now the fastest Indian and the quickest among spinners in the last 100 years to take 50 Test wickets in terms of balls bowled. He took 1871 deliveries while Axar Patel, who is next on the list, took 2205 balls.
The Chinaman fancies playing in Dharamsala, the ground where he also made his Test debut back in 2017. After a 4-wicket-haul in Dharamsala against Australia in that Test, Kuldeep ended with 5 wickets at the HPCA stadium on Thursday.&nbsp;
England started the post-lunch session at 100 for two but lost six wickets for just 94 runs as Indian spinners, led by Kuldeep (5/72), ran through their batting unit.
Opener Zak Crawley (79, 108 balls) offered lone resistance for England.
There were two middling partnerships -&ndash; 37 between Crawley and Joe Root (26) for the third wicket and 38 between Root and 100-Test-man Jonny Bairstow (29) for the fourth wicket &ndash;- but they were not sufficient for the visitors.

England, from a comfortable 175/3, spectacularly collapsed to 183/8. The sudden disintegration saw the team losing 5 wickets for a mere 8 runs.

In the serene setting of the HPCA Stadium in Dharamsala, India's spin duo, Kuldeep Yadav and R Ashwin, orchestrated a masterclass in spin bowling, leading to England's collapse on the opening day of the final Test. Kuldeep, with his mesmerizing spin, emerged as the highlight of the day, claiming 5 wickets, his 4th 5-wicket haul in Tests, leaving the English batsmen bewildered by his guile. R Ashwin, commemorating his 100th Test appearance, complemented Kuldeep's efforts with a commendable 4/51, ensuring the visitors struggled to capitalize on their decision to bat first on a seemingly batsman-friendly pitch.
The day started positively for England, with openers Zak Crawley and Ben Duckett combining for a promising 64-run partnership, setting a solid foundation. Crawley, demonstrating his class, scored an impressive 79 but eventually succumbed to Kuldeep's cunning. The partnership of Joe Root and Jonny Bairstow, with the latter featuring in his 100th Test, advanced England's cause to 175/3, hinting at a potential recovery and a competitive total.
However, the narrative took a dramatic turn as England, from a comfortable 175/3, spectacularly collapsed to 183/8. This sudden disintegration saw the team losing 5 wickets for a mere 8 runs, underlining India's spin dominance and England's inability to counter the assault. Ashwin, initially subdued, sprung into action against England's lower order, wrapping up the innings and confining the visitors to a modest total of 218.

<h2>"All of you also want to watch good cricket. For good cricket, it's important (that the wickets are good)" - Kuldeep Yadav</h2>

India spinner Kuldeep Yadav on Tuesday said that rank turners might come into play in the ongoing Test battle against England but admitted that sporting tracks, like the ones seen in the first two games, are "good for cricket".
The two sides have assembled here for the third Test starting at the Saurashtra Cricket Association (SCA) Stadium from Thursday, with the series poised at 1-1.
"Overall, everything is important. The fast bowlers also come into play, like you saw in the last match. So (good wickets) are good for cricket. It is not (the case) that you will not get to see rank-turners going forward. Hopefully, in the future you will see (turning tracks)," Kuldeep said while addressing a media conference ahead of India's training session on Tuesday.
A depleted India were pushed by an aggressive England, who beat them comfortably in the first Test, but the hosts bounced back in the second. Both the matches were played on pitches that were not predominantly spin-friendly and had something for everyone.
"I have no idea. I haven't played on rank turners. I did not play in the last series (Border-Gavaskar series in February-March last year) at home," he replied when asked why there were no rank turners for the first two Tests.
"I do not know what our approach or thinking would be. It is basically the team management's decision. Obviously, all of you also want to watch good cricket. For good cricket, it's important (that the wickets are good)," he said.
Kuldeep chose to side-step when asked whether rank turners should be there or not.
"I do not know that, I enjoy playing, whenever I get an opportunity to play, whether it is on a flat track or on a rank turner...batting too is important for us, not just spin bowling," he said.
"When we say it is going to be a batting (friendly) wicket, we do not mean that 700-800 runs will be scored here, but it will be a better wicket compared to playing on a rank turner," he said.
England's approach unusual for Test cricket 
Kuldeep admitted that England's aggressive approach with the bat has been unusual to deal with in Test cricket.
"...in Test cricket, you are not used to having someone with such an attacking batting approach. But at the same time, you are more involved in the game. As a spinner you are more focused on the game, how you are going to bowl and what your approach will be," he said.
"Sometimes in Test cricket, you are not overly worried if the batter would attack much and you focus on how to dismiss them.
"But here the approach is different, they are in attacking mode so you have to plan on how to restrict them because (if they are) playing more shots, then more opportunities are being created to take a wicket," he added.
Opportunity for youngsters 
India have been depleted further with KL Rahul set to miss the third Test, but Kuldeep said it is an opportunity for young players in the side to prove their mettle.
"...that gives a chance to a newcomer who can get the opportunity. I am sure they have done really well in domestic cricket and it is their time to show what they have got. It is good for Indian cricket and for the individuals as well," he said.
Kuldeep, however, hoped that all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja will be back into the side to play on his home turf after suffering a hamstring injury in the first Test.
"He is doing his routine (work). He did one session yesterday (Monday) and I think he is available," Kuldeep said.

Kuldeep Yadav fires warning shots at New Zealand after India thrash Netherlands

We have played the whole tournament well and we expect the same thing in the next game,' Kuldeep stated

Kuldeep Yadav is high on confidence after Team India ended the league stage of World Cup 2023 unbeaten in 9 games.
The chinaman even fired warning shots at New Zealand ahead of the semifinal and said that the Kiwis should 'expect the same' level of performance at the Wankhede encounter on Wednesday.
'It's been four years now and we have played many bilateral series between us. Conditions are familiar, they know it and we also know it. Players have also played regularly...so we know everything (of each other). Just that our preparations have been really good, we have played the whole tournament well and we expect the same thing in the next game,' Kuldeep stated.
India lost to New Zealand at the semifinal stage in the 2019 World Cup and will face the same opposition at this tournament.
Kuldeep has taken 14 wickets in 9 matches so far in this World Cup and has picked out his 'line and length' as the critical difference for his better performance.
'Wankhede..I mean, its a difficult track to bowl. The bounce is true, thats why batsmen are dominating there, even in T20 format. And of course in 50 over format you have got plenty of time to come back in your spell. Definitely if you get couple of early wickets, you are always on top of your game.'
'I don't look at videos at all. I don't believe ...I mean I believe...sometimes we just look at the batsmen because I've been playing (against) all the batsmen for six, seven years...we understand. And we just discuss what I can do better in every game...of the length which I'm bowling, that's working for me, you know, not thinking too much about the batsmen who is batting..sometimes they can get better over me but most of the times I just try to think about where to bowl and what sort of line and length,' Kuldeep concluded.

Kuldeep Yadav may be making waves in the cricketing world but a second chance didn't come that easily for the left-arm leg spinner. His 5-wicket haul against Pakistan is a testament to the hard work he has put in following a period of decline towards the end of the last decade. Most fans would remember a teary-eyed Kuldeep when he was taken to the cleaners during KKR's match against RCB in IPL 2019. Many believed it was the start of Kuldeep's downfall.Struggling with poor form and having undergone a knee surgery, many believed that his career was on the decline. However, the determined cricketer refused to be defeated. Kuldeep Yadav 2.0 began his resurgence during the Covid-19 lockdown in 2020. As per an Indian Express report, Kuldeep decided to return to the basics and worked tirelessly on his skills, seeking guidance from his childhood coach Kapil Pandey in Kanpur. Later, the experienced former India left-arm spinner, Sunil Joshi, played a pivotal role in shaping Kuldeep's comeback. Joshi helped Kuldeep refine his delivery stride, front arm position, arm speed, and encouraged him to generate more revolutions on the ball. This hard work paid off when Kuldeep was picked up by the Delhi Capitals in IPL 2022 auction. Under the captaincy of Rishabh Pant and guidance of head coach Ricky Ponting, Kuldeep found the belief and support he needed. With Ponting's assurance of playing all matches and being labeled as their 'matchwinner,' Kuldeep regained his confidence and performed brilliantly in IPL 2022, taking 21 wickets, including his best figures of 4 for 14. He made a triumphant return to the Indian Test team, shining with 8 wickets in the 1st Test against Bangladesh in December 2022. Despite facing some setbacks, Kuldeep's determination and hard work continued to pay dividends. He made a strong comeback in ODIs, taking 27 wickets in 13 innings this year at an impressive economy rate of 4.57.Kuldeep Yadav's rejuvenated form comes as a timely warning to his opponents as the crucial ODI World Cup approaches. The lad from Kanpur, who once faced a daunting tunnel of darkness, has now emerged into the light with a renewed spirit and talent, proving that he can be a formidable force to reckon with on any given day.

<h2>Indian spinner Kuldeep Yadav says getting dropped due to conditions and team combinations is now a 'normal' thing for him.</h2>

Getting dropped due to conditions that require a specific playing combination has been a "normal" thing for Kuldeep Yadav and the left-arm wrist spinner believes that it is better to make every opportunity count than fret on chances that he lost over the years.
The Kanpur man<a href="https://www.editorji.com/sports-news/cricket/ind-vs-wi-1st-odi-kuldeep-jadeja-star-as-india-test-out-batting-options-during-5-wicket-win-1690484882187"> snapped 4 for 6 in just three overs to lead India to a five-wicket win</a> in the first ODI against the West Indies on Thursday.
He won the Player of the Match award and it would be fair to say that his googlies (one that turns away from right-handers) were at times unreadable.
"Most of the time, when I don't get to play it is because of the situation and combination. It is a normal thing now. I have been playing cricket for so many years, it has been more than six years now. These things are normal," he told reporters during the post-match press conference.
While dropping his guard for a split second, he was back to speaking about "process" and how he focusses on his length rather than obsessing about taking wickets.
"I don't think much about taking wickets now. My focus is more on the process than what length I should be bowling," he said.
Kuldeep, who has taken 19 wickets from 9 ODIs this year, hasn't consistently found a place across versions in the Indian side.
He was left out of the second Test against Bangladesh despite taking eight wickets, including a fifer and scoring a crucial 40 in the first innings last December.
"Since the past one and half years, when I have returned from the injury, I have tried to bowl on those good lengths. I want to be more consistent with the length, and as far are wickets are concerned, on some days, you will get the wicket, while on others, you won't.
"Situation is also very important. I try my variations only when the opposition has lost four or five wickets quickly."&nbsp;
Competition with Yuzevendra Chahal
Kuldeep said competition in the Indian team only motivates him to do well and he is focusing more on his process than performance.
"Competition will always be there in the Indian cricket team but it motivates you as well to do well as you can't take anything lightly. For me, the process is more important than performance.
"I have been working at the NCA on by bowling, on my length. When you get the opportunity, you try to make it count," he said.
Kuldeep and fellow leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal formed the famous "Kul-Cha", which made a big impact when they played together for some time, claiming 135 wickets in 34 games.
However, the duo hasn't played together for some time now with Kuldeep preferred over Chahal in the opening ODI here.
"We are pretty relaxed. We know that combination matters a lot. We have a good understanding. He helps me a lot when I am playing. He always wants me to give my best. At the same time, I also share my opinions, when he gets the chance to play.
"The 'Kul-Cha' has been done well over the years because we support each other,&rdquo; he said.
Support of captain and coach
Talking about the role played by seniors such as former captain Virat Kohli, current skipper Rohit Sharma and coach Rahul Dravid, Kuldeep said: "Seniors play a big role. When I brought the changes in my game, Virat bhai and Rohit bhai supported me a lot. They have shown confidence in me. Also, coach Rahul sir has backed me a lot." On Thursday, India skittled out the Windies for 114 in 23 overs with Ravindra Jadeja (3/37 in 6 overs) and Kuldeep (4/6 in 3 overs) sharing seven wickets.
Ishan Kishan then made a half-century (52 off 46 balls) to take the team home in just 22.5 overs after Rohit and Kohli decided to give game time to middle-order batters.
"To be very honest, initially it looked like a good wicket for the seamers. Our fast bowlers, they bowled really well. When Ravindra Jadeja was bowling, it was gripping and turning at the same time," Kuldeep said.
"When I started from the other end, I got the drift as well as the turn. In the second innings, their left-arm spinner (Gudakesh Motie) and leg-spinner (Yannic Cariah), bowled well as well and were getting bounce and turn. I think it was a good wicket for spinners as well.
"It would have been great if we have won the game by eight or nine wickets but they bowled really well. Sometimes you just want to give the opportunity to the younger boys, so probably in the next game, you will see the full side batting and hopefully we can win the second one and the series," he concluded.

Shastri, under whose tutelage India won back-to-back Test series in Australia, also has no hesitation in naming Kuldeep Yadav as his choice as the third spinner while keeping Suryakumar Yadav as a potent middle-order game-changer.
"Ashwin, you don't want him to over-plan. He is good enough to stick to his plans as he is a real crucial player here. His form might decide the series. Ashwin comes as a package, he will get you important runs as well," Shastri said while answering a query from PTI during an interaction organized by Star Sports, the official broadcasters of the Border Gavaskar Trophy.
