IPL 2022: Ricky Ponting Believes Kuldeep Yadav Is Flourishing In The Delhi Capitals’ Positive Environment

In IPL 2022, Kuldeep Yadav has remade himself, and seeing him bowl, it appears that he has regained his confidence, which had been lost for a long time.

Ricky Ponting, the head coach of the Delhi Capitals, recruited Kuldeep onto the team because he believed he could succeed.

“We are unlocking minor handbrakes that might be holding guys back,” Ricky Ponting explained regarding his cognitive process for bringing the leg-spinner in the lineup. Kuldeep Yadav should be included in this list.

One of the factors I recognized him at the auction was because he had been at KKR for a couple years but had not been playing – I believe they have a little more good spinners.

In The Delhi Capitals podcast, Ponting said, “I believed if we could integrate him into our environment and really give him plenty of comfort, I believed he may be one of the finds of the event.” “In this atmosphere, he’s bowling wonderfully and growing.”

Kuldeep Yadav has been out for 3-4 years, hardly played any cricket at all: Ponting

“The trouble with him is he’s been around for 3-4 years, scarcely playing any cricket at all,” Ponting continued.

He was on the periphery of the Indian squad, and it’s been difficult for him to have a match with KKR, with Varun Chakravarthy and Narine, and sometimes even Shakib Al Hasan.

“I’ve been watching him for years and talking about him building up to other activities for even longer, and it wasn’t until this year that we were able to get our hands on him. It’s nice to hear that he’s comfortable, and that’s what we’re here to do.”

In the Purple Cap race, Kuldeep Yadav’s fourth four-fer enabled him to cut the gap on friend Yuzvendra Chahal. Chahal leads the team with 18 wickets this season, while Kuldeep is two-wicket short of matching that total.
