Kuldeep Yadav makes KKR pay for letting him go

Kuldeep Yadav gave a perfect reply with his bowling against his former IPL team

IPL 2022: Kuldeep Yadav bowled brilliantly, as his dream spell on Sunday blew away his former team Kolkata Knight Riders, helping Delhi Capitals win the match.

DC won the match by 44 runs at the Brabourne Stadium.

The left-arm spinner returned with fantastic figures of 4-35, which was his second-best spell in the history of the IPL. Kuldeep dismissed Shreyas Iyer, Pat Cummins, Sunil Narine and Umesh Yadav and this spell helped Delhi Capitals stay on top as they won the match.

Kuldeep’s best spell in the IPL is 4-20 against the Rajasthan Royals in 2018 while playing for the Kolkata Knight Riders.

Earlier, former India cricketer Mohammad Kaif criticized KKR for their treatment towards Kuldeep Yadav.

He said: “Kuldeep Yadav is a proven match-winner. But he is someone who also needs to be managed well. He is a bit emotional and feels low if he isn’t given the bowling or is dropped from the team. The way he was treated at KKR when Dinesh Karthik and Eoin Morgan were the captains, he used to be made to sit at home and not even in the squad. When you behave like this, any match-winner feels the pressure.
