The former Australia captain Michael Clarke believes the India wrist-spinner has the skills to succeed across formats, despite not always getting regular opportunities in the national side.
"There are very few spinners playing all three formats. I think Kuldeep Yadav is the best all-format spinner in the world at the moment. He's a very good short-form bowler. But he's not getting enough opportunities. Though I think he'll play for India against Australia."
His ODI numbers are equally impressive. The 31-year-old has claimed 194 wickets in 121 matches at an average of 27.04 and an economy rate of 5.07. His best ODI figures are 6/25, while he has two five-wicket hauls in the format.
Monty Panesar hails Keshav Maharaj as best all-format spinner
Michael Clarke's view, however, is not shared by former England spinner Monty Panesar. The former international believes Keshav Maharaj currently deserves the distinction, particularly because of his ability to control games with his accuracy and variation.
"The best spinner for me is Keshav Maharaj, just by the way he is bowling at the moment. He has got it on a string and attacks and defends equally well," Panesar said.
The South African has also played 54 T20Is and taken 55 wickets. His average in the format is 26.30, while he has maintained an economy rate of 7.87.
