"From Being Destroyed By KKR To...": Twitter Reacts To Kuldeep Yadav's Sensational IPL 2022 Spell Against Former Team
Kuldeep Yadav's dream spell on Sunday blew away his erstwhile team Kolkata Knight Riders as Delhi Capitals emerged victorious by 44 runs at the Brabourne Stadium. The left-arm spinner returned with the figures of 4-35, which was his second-best spell in the history of the IPL. Kuldeep dismissed Shreyas Iyer, Pat Cummins, Sunil Narine and Umesh Yadav and this spell helped Delhi Capitals stay on top and in the end, KKR fell 44 runs short of the target.
Kuldeep's best spell in the IPL is 4-20 against the Rajasthan Royals in 2018 while playing for the Kolkata Knight Riders.
Kuldeep had a difficult time with KKR in the past few seasons as he warmed the bench on most occasions. But the spinner celebrated animatedly after taking the wickets of KKR batters.
The left-arm spinner had played nine games for KKR in the 2019 season and then he appeared in just five matches in the following season. In 2021, the spinner missed the tournament due to an injury and was later released by the side ahead of the mega auction.
Following Kuldeep's match-winning performance against his former team, Twitter went into a frenzy with fans hailing him. Even former India batter Wasim Jaffer trolled KKR with a hilarious meme.
