Kuldeep Yadav stole the limelight in the ongoing ICC World Cup 2023 game against Afghanistan at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi. The leg-spinner took a brilliant catch on the second attempt to dismiss dangerous-looking Rashid Khan.
Kuldeep Yadav made a mess of the catch but he made sure that he grabbed it after missing it on first attempt. During the second ball of the 49th over Jasprit Bumrah bowled a slower short ball outside off to Rashid Khan.
The Afghanistan batter tried to smash it and as the ball went in the air, Kuldeep Yadav came running from the sweeper cover and ran to his left. He reached there in time and as he attempted the catch, the ball popped out of his hand. It seemed that it would be a dropped chance but he managed to take it on the second attempt.
