Kuldeep Yadav is hands-down one of the most exceptional left-arm wrist spinners in the cricket world right now. With his T20I comeback in the Asia Cup 2025 against UAE, he took four wickets for just seven runs and proved why he’s “India’s No.1 spinner”. Despite being sidelined for almost six months, Kuldeep returned and crafted a memorable spectacle out of spin for the Dubai crowd. At the age of 30, Kuldeep is indeed a massive asset to the Indian team in the future.
