Kuldeep Yadav needs to prove his Mettle in tests, says Alec Stewart

India's left-arm spinner Kuldeep Yadav recently made headlines for all the right reasons. However, former England captain Alec Stewart thinks Test matches in England will be a different ball game for the young player. Kuldeep Yadav was named in the 18-member India team for the first three trials against England which also includes Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja. Explaining the practical difficulties that Kuldeep might encounter in the cricket test with different weather conditions, Stewart said that he will have to adapt to the English conditions to have the same impact as in the ODI and T20I.

"All of a sudden, he will not have four men at the limit, he will have four men around the bat, and the drummers do not have to try to score with an intention Positive questions from drummers as he had done in cricket at the white ball? Stewart told PTI

"In ODIs and T20Is, you can get away with bad balls with drummers caught full throws (Eoin Morgan) or scan sweep taken at deep midwicket (Jason Roy) .Kuldeep would these fields in a Test? Would the drummers play that kind of shots? No, instead, it will be a game of cat and mouse and it remains to be seen if Kuldeep can make these adjustments for Test cricket in England. "Stewart said," A mystery spinner creates doubts if you did not face a lot of it, and it makes good cricket when the drummers try to. But England, especially Joe Root, started working on Kuldeep since Lord's and the question is how Kuldeep will play Cricket Test, "said Stewart. , Stewart shed some light on how and who Kohli could choose in his XI playing.

"I am a big fan of Ashwin and he is an impressive artist.Jadeja has also had some success against England.But if anyone has any mystery, you may want to to be playing with him, "said Steward.

"Virat, as captain, is very positive and will support an offensive bowler.It may be believed that Kuldeep has more to offer than Ashwin or Jadeja, and that's the way Virat will then borrow.And then the wrist spinner has to perform, and reproduce with the red ball what he did with the white ball.We will not know until that point. (Kuldeep Yadav) be kicked, "said Stewart.
