India is locking horns with Australia in the third and the final ODI of the series at the MA Chidambaram stadium in Chennai. On a track that has always assisted spinners in the past, the Indian chinaman bowler, Kuldeep Yadav almost produced the mirror image replica of the ball of the century bowled by Shane Warner during the 1992 Ashes to Mike Gatting. Kuldeep got the wicket of Alex Carey with his magic delivery.
The hosts came back hard at the visitors after the latter controlled proceedings in the powerplay, snaring three quick wickets to have the visitors reeling at 85/3 in the 15th over. The recovery was instigated and executed by Hardik Pandya as he took a wicket in each of his first three overs.

Hardik Pandya first came to bowl immediately after the powerplay, with the score reading 61/0. Travis Head and Mitchell Marsh again managed to set a solid foundation with some dominating batting displays.
Despite a couple of partnerships with Marnus Labuschagne and David Warner for the 4th wicket followed by the 6th wicket partnership between Alex Carey and Marcus Stoinis, India managed to get back into the game owing to the brilliant bowling by the spinners, Ravindra Jadeja, Kuldeep Yadav, and Axar Patel.

After Axar dismissed Stoinis in the 37th over, on the very first delivery of his 39th over, Carey is left stunned by a magical delivery from Kuldeep Yadav. Even the bowler was surprised with the delivery as he tossed his leg-spinner on the fuller length which landed on the leg stump. Carey looked wanting as the ball hit the top of off, and the batter was pretty late on his attempted push.
Here is the video of the delivery from Kuldeep Yadav:

Kuldeep Yadav is going to win IND the 2023 World Cup. Hopefully, he'll stay fit and in form. He's a magnificent bowler. In any other era he'd play 80-90 Tests.

This is why you need Kuldeep Yadav in the playing XI, who can provide you breakthrough in the middle overs.
I hope he won't get dropped now considering WC this year.#INDvsAUS #KuldeepYadav
