Kuldeep Yadav delivered a stunning spell of 3 for 18 in India’s dominant win over Pakistan in the Asia Cup 2025. His wrist spin proved too tricky for Pakistan’s batters, who struggled to read his variations and timing. India bowled Pakistan out for just 127 before chasing the target in 15.5 overs.
Sidhu’s “Da Vinci Code” Praise
Former cricketer Navjot Singh Sidhu praised Kuldeep’s brilliance, calling him “a Da Vinci Code that Pakistan couldn’t understand.” He highlighted how Kuldeep’s wrist position and deceptive flight left batters guessing. Sidhu also credited Axar Patel for building pressure from the other end.
Consistent Impact in Asia Cup
Kuldeep has been India’s standout bowler in the tournament, having taken four wickets against UAE in the opening match. Despite warming the bench during the England Test series, he has shown no signs of rust, proving his value in white-ball cricket once again.
India March Toward Super Fours
With two wins from two matches, India are nearly through to the Super Fours stage. Their final group game against Oman will decide the top spot. Under Suryakumar Yadav’s captaincy, India have now won 20 of their last 24 matches, surpassing even Rohit Sharma’s record.
