Kuldeep Yadav has been a sensation for India ever since he burst onto the scene. Being a wrist spinner, the youngster offers a lot on the table, as he remains a genuine wicket-taker, and carries the ability to deceive a batsman in the air. That was quite evident in the first India vs Australia T20I in Ranchi where he rattled Australia with his superb spell of chinaman bowling.

Being put into bat first on a decent deck, Australia lost their skipper David Warner early, but then Glenn Maxwell and Aaron Finch got going. Just when it seemed that India would be in trouble with Finch blazing his way across, Kuldeep struck gold by castling him.

Once Finch was dismissed, the Australian team was in a complete disarray, as apart from the boundaries drying up, it was hard for the visitors even to keep the scoreboard ticking. It is where Kuldeep once again displayed his class.

Expecting all-rounder Moises Henriques to charge at him, Kuldeep wasn’t afraid to toss the ball up and invite him to slog. That was the bait and Henriques fell into the trap, as he jumped down the track without seeing the ball.

The result was that the stumps ended up in a mess, as Kuldeep enjoyed his wicket fully. Below, is the video of Henriques dismissal.
