Kuldeep Yadav often finds himself outside the Team India playing XI after an odd bad day in office. Indian spin legend Ravichandran Ashwin feels the treatment meted out to the left-arm wrist spinner is often “unfair”.
Ravichandran Ashwin has expressed concern that spinner Kuldeep Yadav receives unfair treatment from team management and faces the risk of another benching on India's tour of New Zealand. Ashwin noted that Kuldeep is often dropped after an occasional poor match, pointing to the spinner being sidelined following figures of 1-53 against West Indies in Ranchi. Ashwin expects Varun Chakravarthy could be selected ahead of him if fit.
Ashwin also warned that India might prioritize batting depth over specialist wicket-taking bowlers in New Zealand. He highlighted that the presence of all-rounders Ravindra Jadeja and Washington Sundar could lead the team to leave out an attacking spinner, urging management not to compromise frontline bowling strength.
