In the second T20I against New Zealand, India staged a comeback by delivering a strong performance from their bowlers early in the game. Despite New Zealand’s decision to bat first after winning the toss, the pitch proved favorable for spinners and they quickly fell to 48/4 within the first 10 overs.
This included a crucial wicket by Kuldeep Yadav, who sent Daryl Mitchell back to the pavilion. The Indian team is now looking to level the series.
During the 10th over of the game, the left-arm leg spinner Kuldeep Yadav delivered a ball that quickly turned the game in India’s favor. Mitchell, a New Zealand batter, was attempting to steady the innings for his team.
Kuldeep bowled a loopy delivery outside off and Mitchell shifted his weight onto the backfoot, but the ball spun back so sharply that it was impossible for him to predict. This ball was considered one of the best of the year and Twitter was quick to compare Kuldeep to the Australian legend Shane Warne. The ball hit the wicket and Kuldeep took the wicket.
Kuldeep Yadav delivered a dream wicket for a spinner when he deceived the batter with a massive amount of turn and hit the stumps during the second T20I against New Zealand. The amount of spin on the ball was so impressive that it reminded spectators of the legendary Shane Warne.
