Kuldeep Yadav Hopeful to Get Game time in Sri Lanka India’s left-arm wrist spinner Kuldeep Yadav has been going through a tough time in recent times, but he is hopeful of getting a place in the white-ball series in Sri Lanka. While the Indian Test team has been in the UK for the ICC World Test Championship final against New Zealand and a five-match Test series against England, a second-string Indian team will travel to Sri Lanka for a bilateral series as well. Kuldeep Yadav has last played a T20I in January 2020 and an ODI against England at home recently, but he didn’t get any success there. Even he was not a part of the playing XI for his Indian Premier League franchise – Kolkata Knight Riders in 2021 as well. He has failed to get a chance, and expressed his disappointed as well. “I am disappointed not to be part of the Indian team because I wanted to go and perform and contribute to the team’s win. These things happen, yes you are sad, but at the same time you are ready to perform in the next opportunity,” Kuldeep told India News.
“I didn’t go there (UK), so hopefully I will go to Sri Lanka and get the chance to perform there. Cricket should continue happening, every player is sad when he is not in the team, everyone wants to remain in the team but sometimes the situation is such that you are not part of the team.” The young spinner had earlier shared his views about not getting a game with KKR this season which was postponed with an immediate effect that too for an indefinite period after several players and support staff got infected by the deadly virus in early May. However, later the BCCI announced to host the rest of the games in the UAE during the September-October window as well. “Sometimes you feel you are ready to play but management doesn’t feel so. They think someone is better than you and they also think about the combination. These things happen in franchise cricket a lot. I thought I was ready to play in Chennai in IPL 2021 but it didn’t happen and it was shocking,” he told Crictracker.
