Left-arm wrist-spinner Kuldeep Yadav was at his magnificent best at Kensington Oval when he picked four wickets for just six runs in three overs as India bundled out West Indies for a paltry 114 in the ODI series opener, here on Thursday.
After he ripped through the West Indies tailenders to keep their innings to only 23 runs, Kuldeep said the hard work done on improving his rhythm means the ball is coming out of his hand very well this year.
"To be very honest, I've been working on my rhythm in the last two years. My rhythm wasn't very well last year, but now it's coming out very well. Of course the increase in pace… With the same spin, drift, it's very difficult for the batters to read. Especially in white-ball formats, I am focusing on the lengths and not on taking wickets," the spinner said in a mid-innings chat with the broadcasters.
