Master spinner Kuldeep Yadav shows a star return to Test cricket with peaches of delivery to trick West Indies batter Shiyhope after a command show at the Asian Cup. At Hope’s wicket, the Windies remain hopeless for a comeback.
In India’s first test since India last held the New Zealand side from September to October 2024, India faced a humiliating 3-0 whitewash in the series. This series marks two tests. The first one is currently underway at Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad.
Indian skipper Shubman Gill has yet to score a toss as India’s test skipper. However, this time the loss came in his advantage as the enemy chose to hit with the green track.

The early massacres of Mohammed Siraj and Jaspuri Bamra already left the Windy’s side injuring. But when skipper Roston Chase was partnering with the most information batters across formats, Shai Hope, Repurning Spinner, ruined the plan.
Second of his spell, Kuldeep invited Shai Hope to deliver the fully flying outside. Hope also approached the shot with a semi-horizont bat. However, the ball spins on a massive scale and hits the outer edge of the half stamp.
