Ravichandran Ashwin fears the worst for Kuldeep Yadav under Gautam Gambhir ...Middle East

Former Team India spinner Ravichandran Ashwin, in his YouTube video, opined that it was unfair for Kuldeep Yadav to be benched again and again, despite proving his worth for the national side on multiple occasions.

Since the 1/53 bowling figure, Kuldeep was on the bench for the remaining part of the series. It was a high-scoring match in Ranchi, with the West Indies chasing down India's 249 runs in 18.3 overs. West Indies skipper Shai Hope was named the Player of the Match for his match-defining, unbeaten 102 runs off 45 balls.

By dropping Kuldeep Yadav soon after the Ranchi match, the Indian cricket team tried to restore their bowling department. According to Ravichandran Ashwin, the axing of the 31-year-old was not the right call made by the team management.

I expect Varun Chakravarthy over Kuldeep Yadav: Ravichandran Ashwin

Further in the video, the former spinner made a bold prediction. Ashwin predicted that the Indian cricket team could pick Varun Chakravarthy as their frontline spinner over Kuldeep Yadav when they face New Zealand in an away series, as Hardik Pandya is not fit to play matches yet. But there are doubts over Varun as well because of his fitness-related issues. Eyes will be on Ravindra Jadeja and Washington Sundar as well.

"With Hardik Pandya not yet back, I expect Varun Chakravarthy to get the nod ahead of Kuldeep (in New Zealand), though it will be interesting to see how he returns from his side strain. If we have Ravindra Jadeja and Washington Sundar around, we might see India leave out an attacking spin option. I hope not, but that could again be the direction we take,” Ravichandran Ashwin added.
