‘We’d bite his hand off’: After India snub, Kuldeep gets high praise from County stint
Kuldeep Yadav, once excluded from India's Test team following a lackluster start against Sri Lanka, has been commended for his impressive performance with Yorkshire. The left-arm wrist-spinner, who picked up just one wicket in India's first Test, has returned to England to bolster the county's batting lineup. Kuldeep's decision to rejoin Yorkshire came after being omitted from India's T20I squad for the Afghanistan tour and the Asian Games.
At Headingley, Kuldeep demonstrated his prowess by claiming a remarkable 10-wicket haul and posting an impressive career-best 6-50 against Essex. Yorkshire coach Anthony McGrath expressed his delight, stating that the bowler's control over spin was exceptional, and he would fiercely fight to bring him back to the county next season.
With one game remaining in his current contract, McGrath emphasized that Yorkshire would be "biting his hand off" to secure Kuldeep's return. Across seven matches, Kuldeep has taken 19 wickets at an average of 17.31.
