Ahead of the Indian Premier League 2025 clash against the five-time champions Chennai Super Kings, Delhi Capitals’ left-arm wrist spinner Kuldeep Yadav opened up about his game plan for the encounter against the five-time champions.
After putting up a stunning show in the first two matches in Visakhapatnam, the Delhi Capitals (DC) are gearing up for their first away game of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 against Chennai Super Kings (CSK), which will take place at M. A. Chidambaram Stadium on Saturday.
Speaking on the eve of the match, Delhi Capitals left-arm wrist spinner Kuldeep Yadav, as quoted by the Delhi Capitals press release, “Chennai Super Kings have some quality players in their lineup. My plan (against them) is simple. I want to pick wickets and keep things tight at the same time.”
“Length is very important. I’m focusing on what lengths to bowl at. Moreover, getting the ball to turn has been my strength, and I want to continue doing that,” he added.
Delhi Capitals’ opponents for the game, Chennai Super Kings, have lost two and won one in three matches so far. Kuldeep praised his counterpart, Noor Ahmed, who is currently the leading wicket-taker in the competition.
“Noor (Ahmed) is bowling really well, and he is someone who is trying to learn from everyone. We had a chat last night about bowling leg spin, as well. He has some good pace also, so it’s very difficult for a batter to read him and especially when you play in Chennai,” he said.
“I believe a wrist spinner, whether you bowl right or left arm, you have to adapt and you have to learn the skill of spinning the ball, and that’s what I have done over the years. Even now, I just look at how I can improve,” he further explained while talking about the speciality of wrist spinners. — ANI
