India vs Bangladesh World Cup 2023: Kuldeep Yadav showcased his mastery, providing the crucial breakthrough India desperately needed. The young spinner brilliantly executed a well-disguised flipper that completely bamboozled Tanzid Hasan, ultimately leading to his dismissal.
Yadav, recognizing the importance of this moment, cleverly varied his deliveries. Opting for a flipper, he pitched the ball on off, allowing it to skid through. Tanzid Hasan, attempting to sweep, misjudged the line completely. The ball, sliding on, beat the inside edge of Hasan’s bat, striking him plumb in front of the stumps. The umpire had no hesitation in raising his finger, signaling the end of Hasan’s impressive innings.
Rohit Sharma had a long chat with Kuldeep Yadav during the drinks breaks and just in the next over Kuldeep strikes.

Tanzid Hasan, who had been shaping up well, fell victim to Yadav’s cunning bowling strategy. His knock, adorned with five boundaries and three exquisite sixes, came to an end at 51 runs off 43 deliveries. While he contemplated a review, a discussion with Litton Das convinced him otherwise, accepting the adjacent decision.
Interestingly, just moments before this pivotal wicket, during the drinks break, Captain Rohit Sharma was observed delivering a motivating pep talk. The impact of his words became evident as Yadav, fueled by determination, dominated the proceedings on the field.
