IPL 2022, DC vs RR: How Team India, Delhi Capitals got Kuldeep Yadav back into a happy space
Dravid & Co drafted him into team straight after injury, Pant & Ponting told him he will play all matchesNEW DELHI: Kuldeep Yadav's career is already one of the most intriguing stories in Indian cricket. A trump card till the 2019 World Cup, he fell off the radar of the Indian team management and subsequently lost his place at Kolkata Knight Riders too. This IPL season, in Delhi Capitals colours, he seems to have turned a corner. It's obvious he is enjoying his cricket again. "I am enjoying my bowling after a long time," Kuldeep unapologetically declared during the post-match presentation on Wednesday. When he suffered a gruesome knee injury in Dubai ahead of the second leg of IPL last year, the darkest phase of his career just got darker. The turnaround, however, happened when the new team management, under head coach Rahul Dravid and bowling coach Paras Mhambrey, decided to bring him straight back into the white-ball and red-ball squad during the home season.
