Born on October 15, 1996, Kuldip Yadav is often confused with the Indian international cricketer and chinaman- Kuldeep Yadav because of the similarities in their names. Delhi born Kuldip is a right-arm fast-bowler. The pacer got famous during the auction for the 2021 IPL season when Rajasthan Royals bought him at his base price of INR 20 lakh. Right-handed batsman and medium-pacer Kuldip was picked in India’s squad for the 2019 ACC Emerging Teams Asia Cup, held in Bangladesh. He played a single match in the said tourney and that was against Hong Kong Emerging Team on November 18, 2019. He took a single wicket on debut. The inexperienced bowler would most probably be warming up the bench during his maiden IPL stint but he will surely learn a lot from the greats like Kumar Sangakkara and Rob Cassell.
