Indian batting legend Sachin Tendulkar wished Indian spinner Kuldeep Yadav in the most unique way. Tendulkar decided to wish the Indian Chinaman bowler in Chinese on Twitter. Yadav, who currently is part of the Indian squad for Australia tour, turned 24 on Friday.
Here’s the Tweet…
Recently, according to the latest ICC T20I rankings released on November 26, the star spinner managed to get a spot in the top-five for T20I bowlers for the first time in his career. Yadav had jumped 20 places to claim the third position.
The wrist-spinner edged out fast bowlers Jasprit Bumrah of India and Bangladesh’s Mustafizur Rahman out of the top-20 to increase the number of slow bowlers to 13 in the top-20 list.
The first day of the second Test against Australia in Perth turned out to be extremely tough for India. The visitors toiled very hard to restrict the run flow right from the beginning as the hosts easily amassed 277 runs by the end of the day’s play at a loss of 6 wickets. At stumps, skipper Tim Paine was batting on 16 along with Pat Cummins (11*).
The Indian bowling attack found it too hard to get some early wickets on day one as Australia finished day one at 277-6 after being 112-0 at one stage.
