Kuldeep Yadav produced a scintillating performance against his former IPL franchise Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) on Sunday afternoon as he returned with figures of 4/34 in four overs. The left-arm wrist spinner dismissed Shreyas Iyer, Pat Cummins, Sunil Narine and Umesh Yadav as Delhi Capitals (DC) defeated KKR by 44 runs.
Put in to bat first, David Warner (61 off 45), Prithvi Shaw (51 off 29) and Shardul Thakur (29 not out off 11) guided DC to a mammoth score of 215/5 in their stipulated 20 overs.
In reply, Iyer and Co. got bundled out for just 171 in 19.4 overs. For Delhi, apart from Kuldeep, Khaleel Ahmed (3/25) and Shardul (2/30) also bagged crucial wickets.

Apart from those talented first timers in this ipl, the story for me is Kuldeep Yadav’s return. He is really good with his pace and spin variations. #DelhiCapitals
