One of India’s best spinners, Harbhajan, was absolutely perplexed by the decision to dismiss Kuldeep. “I believe Kuldeep ought to refrain from taking five-wicket hauls going forward.”
After his exploits in the previous match, Kuldeep Yadav’s stunning absence from the Indian side for the second Test against Bangladesh has led Harbhajan Singh to question whether the left-arm wrist spinner “would be better off” if he is not receiving “player of the match” accolades. Kuldeep, who returned to Test cricket after a 22-month absence, took a match-high eight wickets, including a career-best 5/40, and scored 40 significant runs before being discarded for the current second game in Mirpur to make room in the playing eleven for Saurashtra seamer Jaydev Unadkat.
