Kapil Pandey Bats For Kuldeep Yadav’s Return: ‘Not Picking Him Has Hurt India' (Ld)
Kapil Dev Pandey: India’s premier left-arm wrist spinner, Kuldeep Yadav, has spent the first three matches of the ongoing five-Test series in England on the sidelines, and as the fourth Test at Old Trafford approaches, his childhood coach Kapil Dev Pandey believes it's high time the spinner gets his due.
In an exclusive conversation with IANS, Pandey expressed confidence in Kuldeep’s form and fitness, stating that the spinner is ready to make an impact if given the opportunity. With India trailing 1-2 in the series following a loss at Lord’s, a dramatic win at Edgbaston, and a defeat at Headingley, the pressure is mounting on the visitors to field a more well-rounded bowling attack — and Pandey feels Kuldeep could provide just that.
“Kuldeep not playing doesn't seem to hold much value in the current context, because Team India has been playing well. In the third Test, many expected him to feature, but the fast bowlers did the job and picked up wickets,” he said.
