A mainstay in India's white-ball teams until the 2019 World Cup, Kuldeep has endured a slump in returns, his drop in performance coinciding with India's decision to shelve their two wristspinners theory.
India and Kolkata Knight Riders left-arm spinner Kuldeep Yadav has undergone surgery after sustaining a knee injury. The 26-year-old had already left the IPL 2021 bubble in the UAE and returned to India.
The IPL hasn't exactly been a stage to push for a comeback, having been usurped in the playing XI by CV Varun. Kuldeep took a solitary wicket from five appearances in IPL 2020 and wasn't picked for any game in the ongoing 2021 season.
