WATCH: Kuldeep Yadav’s brilliant Spin leaves Shai Hope STUNNED

Star Indian mystery spinner Kuldeep Yadav made a memorable comeback to India’s Test team by taking a crucial wicket on Day 1 of the first Test against West Indies. He dismissed West Indies batter Shai Hope, who misjudged the delivery and was bowled out. Hope seemed stunned and stayed on the pitch for a few seconds, trying to understand how Kuldeep managed such sharp turn on the opening day’s pitch.

Kuldeep Yadav returned to India’s playing XI after being on the bench throughout the five-match series against England. For the home series against West Indies, captain Shubman Gill included three spinners in the team, giving Kuldeep the opportunity to play.

Just when West Indies looked to be steadying their innings, Kuldeep Yadav, playing his first Test in over a year, produced a brilliant moment. His delivery drifted, dipped, and sharply turned, breaching Shai Hope’s defense on a drive attempt and smashing the stumps just before lunch.
