Kuldeep Yadav talks about dream delivery to Babar Azam in World Cup 2019

Kuldeep Yadav revealed how he had bowled a 'dream' delivery to get rid of Pakistani batting sensation Babar Azam during the 2019 World Cup group game between arch-rivals India and Pakistan at the Old Trafford in Manchester. During a recent interview with a cricket website, the bowler went on to say that it was something different when the spinner’s ball drifted in that fashion and went through to hit the stumps.

Recalling that dream delivery, the wrist-spinner further added that the ball turned to come into the batsman. The youngster further added that sometimes he wonders how he was able to do that and that too with a white-ball and not a red-ball, since the former doesn't turn as much.
