India spinner Kuldeep Yadav has received a dose of the COVID-19 vaccine on Saturday. After that, he has shared a photo and also asked everyone to get vaccinated against the fight of the coronavirus pandemic.
He shared the photo and wrote the caption in Hindi which reads: “Get vaccinated immediately whenever you get a chance. Be safe because you need to be united in the fight against COVID-19.” However, soon after he added the picture, he got into trouble as Kanpur district administration has ordered an inquiry against him on the allegation that cricketer Kuldeep Yadav received the coronavirus vaccine at the guest house instead of taking at the hospital where he had booked a slot as well.

“With Kuldeep, I am a little surprised (not picked for England tour). Because a year ago, he was the No. 1 spinner. Within a year, he is not on the contract list. He is not there on any side. He might be there in the side for Sri Lanka. But I am a little surprised. Obviously, his arc has gone down, his performances have gone down. I still believe that his skill set is very unique. And we need to keep investing in him,” Dasgupta told Sports Today.
