Amid the ongoing ODI series between India and England, veteran cricketer-turned-commentator Aakash Chopra has said that Kuldeep Yadav isn’t being treated properly. He also added that Yadav is the first person dropped across formats whenever any changes are needed. The final ODI of the three-match series between India and England will take place at Lord’s on Sunday, July 19.

In a video shared on his YouTube channel, ‘Aakash Chopra,’ he said, “The more you think about him, the more you realize what is happening? Why is justice never done to this guy? Why does this guy never get proper opportunities? We are not treating him well, there is no doubt about it. It has happened in multiple formats. It has happened in India and outside India. He is the first guy who faces the consequence of anything, whether it’s a change in strategy, the team not doing well, or the batting not going well. The first guy who goes out is Kuldeep Yadav.”

However, Aakash Chopra also added that Kuldeep Yadav has played very few games, especially Tests, despite being part of the Indian squad for many years as well.

“He has played for so many years, but has played a handful of matches. As soon as someone is doing slightly better, he is played ahead of him, or an all-rounder who can bat is played ahead of him. So, not being able to make a place for Kuldeep Yadav is a travesty,” he said.

“When we talk especially about ODI cricket, where the middle overs are slightly sluggish, you need a wicket-taker, and not to think about Kuldeep Yadav at all in such a scenario, I think it’s a little sad. The right thing is not happening. I feel there should at least be an attempt to play him in the XI, but it’s not happening at all. I don’t like it,” Chopra concluded.
