Kuldeep Yadav was spotted batting for long minutes instead of bowling in the nets, infact he did not bowl a single ball in the first net session on Wednesday.
The team management have been criticised for not playing Kuldeep Yadav across formats. Former cricketers and analysts have questioned the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) for the repeated exclusion of Kuldeep from the playing XI across formats. Kuldeep did not feature in a single game in the last three series he was named in.
The wrist-spinner has struggled with form in recent times but will look to do well in the upcoming series to boost his confidence and get back to his rhythm.

Kuldeep has played in 18 Test matches so far, and in 34 innings he has picked 79 wickets for the side with an economy of 3.53 and an average just above 20.
India are currently placed fifth in the World Test Championship (WTC) 2025-2027 points table and are in desperate need to win the Test series, as they are winless in the last two Test series they played against good opponents.
They last won against West Indies when they clean-swept them and, following that, lost to South Africa at home. An upset in this Test series could put the head coach role of Gautam Gambhir in danger.
