Cricket News: Wasim Jaffer, a former cricketer for India, lauded left-arm spinner Kuldeep Yadav and said that despite not having the finest year last year due to a lack of opportunities, he persisted and performed admirably in recent series. Kuldeep temporarily lost favour with the Indian team following the 2019 ODI World Cup.
But in the IPL 2022, he made a successful comeback with his new franchise, the Delhi Capitals, and paved his way back into the Indian side. Jaffer foretold that the wrist spinners often produce amazing outcomes when they bowl with a steady rhythm, and Kuldeep has performed exceptionally well in the last two series by taking wickets at regular intervals in the middle overs.
“It occurs when using wrist spinners. They take wickets when their form is strong and the ball exits their hands well. He demonstrated his ability in the most recent two series by getting significant wickets and providing crucial breakthroughs. Thus, he is capable of that. He missed his prior opportunity. The management has given him a steady run because Axar Patel isn’t there. He participates in a match, is benched, then returns, plays, and then is benched once more. Therefore, it’s difficult for any athlete,” Jaffer told ESPNCricinfo.
Kuldeep will likely face Australia as well, I predict: Jaffer
Prior to his comeback, Kuldeep wasn’t given many opportunities, but the spinner made the most of each one, according to the 44-year-old. Jaffer thinks that if Kuldeep continues to play well in the next T20I series against New Zealand, he might as well be selected for the Indian team for the Test matches against Australia.
However, he has been remarkably consistent, so I won’t be shocked if he wins this series. Jaffer stated, “I anticipate him getting a chance against Australia as well.”
Regarding the pace attack, Jaffer thinks that Arshdeep Singh would recover his form in the New Zealand T20Is following a disappointing showing against Sri Lanka.
“The latest T20I series included all three bowlers, and they performed admirably. Arshdeep Singh has been a little off lately, but I have no doubt that with the manner he bowls, this series will see him get back on track. Given that both Mavi and Malik haven’t played many games, if he isn’t present, we might have a bowling unit that lacks experience.”
