India spinner Kuldeep Yadav returned with impressive figures of 4 for 43 in 9.3 overs as the Rohit Sharma-led side defeated Sri Lanka in a low-scoring thriller to qualify for the Asia Cup final. Defending a 213-run total, India rolled over Sri Lanka for 172 thanks to Kuldeep's four-for and two wickets each from Jasprit Bumrah and Ravindra Jadeja. Sri Lanka youngster Dunith Wellalage, who bagged a five-wicket haul earlier, was stranded on 42 as Kuldeep struck twice in the same over to snatch a win from the jaws of defeat.

But within the last year or so Kuldeep has managed to change his status to become one of the automatic picks in India's World Cup-bound 15 which was announced on Tuesday. Kuldeep has also nosed ahead of leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal and off-spinners R Ashwin and Washington Sundar in the India scheme of things.
