A day before the fourth and the last game of the India vs Australia series, the Indian cricket fraternity and fan following went through a shock after it was learned that skipper Virat Kohli will not the Dharamsala Test. He was ruled out and Kuldeep Yadav was the pick in his place. The 22-year-old China man bowler made the most of his chance at his debut and dismantled the Australian batting line-up.

He did the same thing what actor Sushant Singh Rajput said in the film ‘M.S. Dhoni – The Untold Story’ i.e.,”Dhaaga Khol Diya Ekdum.”

Most of the Aussie batsmen, who came top in the order except Steven Smith, couldn’t survive against the spin of this young debutant and gave their wickets as a debut gift. Starting from David Warner to Pat Cummins, he dismissed 4 Australian batsmen who looked spirited and confident at a certain point of time. The scalps extracted by Yadav includes David Warner (56), Peter Handscomb (8), Glenn Maxwell (8) and Pat Cummins (21).

Kuldeep brought the guests down to their knees and caused the major destruction to the team. His attack was tremendous and his performance overshadowed the absence of Virat Kohli in Dharamsala. By the third session on day 1, Kuldeep Yadav not only became the most praised bowler of the day but his name also became the most trending topic on Twitter.

The Twitteratis, including several veteran Indian cricketers, poured their wishes for him on the micro-blogging site.

Saw him in the under 19 WC 3 years back. Became an instant fan. Great to see Kuldeep Yadav become the 288th Test player for India.
