Jasprit Bumrah and Kuldeep Yadav have been included in India’s provisional 15-man squad for the ICC Champions Trophy, starting February 19 in Pakistan and the UAE.
29-year-old has been travelling with the side for all the matches, and as of now, it seems highly unlikely that he will participate in DC's upcoming contest against fellow strugglers Mumbai Indians on Sunday. There is no confirmation yet on when he will be ready to play again.
Electing to bat first, Crawley and Ben Duckett had to withstand some outstanding swing bowling from a returning Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Siraj asking tough questions constantly.
England had a first-innings lead of 46, but Ashwin wreaked havoc with the new ball to pick his 35th five-wicket haul in Tests via a splendid 5-51.
South Africa has always been special for the Uttar Pradesh left-arm wrist spinner, who bagged 17 wickets in the ODI series back in 2018.
A lot of credit for helping India come back in the series goes to Kuldeep Yadav who picked two wickets in an over to tilt the balance of the match in India’s s favour.
Kuldeep enjoys a brilliant record against Australia and this match is all the more important for him since he is on the brim of a historic feat.
Former Indian captain Anil Kumble, who is the head of ICC’s cricket committee, had confirmed that the proposal of the four-day Tests will be discussed in the next round of the ICC meetings.
In 2019, Kuldeep Yadav's India appearances were few and far apart and his stint with the Kolkata Knight Riders in the IPL was also lacklustre.
Kuldeep Yadav also picked up a couple of wickets while Washington Sundar and Jasprit Bumrah picked up a wicket each.
