'Kuldeep Yadav Has To Play In Kanpur Test Against Bangladesh As India Need Variety': Hanuma Vihari
Green Park Stadium: Middle-order batter Hanuma Vihari believes left-arm wrist-spinner Kuldeep Yadav has to be in the playing eleven for India’s second Test against Bangladesh at Green Park Stadium in Kanpur, citing the need to have variety in the spin-bowling department on a black-soil pitch.
With 53 wickets in 12 Tests since his debut in 2017, Kuldeep didn’t play in India’s 280-run win over Bangladesh in the first Test at Chennai, as India preferred to have a combination of three pacers and two spinners. But the knowledge of conditions at his home ground makes him an essential bowler for India to have in their playing eleven.
“They will probably make a change – they might play an extra spinner instead of a fast bowler. I think Kuldeep has to play in the eleven because if you have all fingers spinners, I don't think you'll get much assistance from the pitch in Kanpur - it won't deteriorate much as what we've seen in Chennai because black soil takes a lot of time to deteriorate.”
