The first Test of the current India-Bangladesh series at the Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium in Chatogram saw Kuldeep Yadav's return to the Indian test team after a break of over two years, and it turned out to be a dream come true for the bowler as he claimed a 5-wicket haul.
In just his seventh Test match, Kuldeep picked up his third 5-wicket haul of his career, leaving Bangladesh's batting unit in serious trouble. India gained a large first innings lead of 254 runs courtesy to Kuldeep's performance, which enabled them to bowl out the hosts for a meagre total of just 150 and placed themselves in a prime position to win the match.
Kuldeep has made history by producing an incredible spell that has eclipsed the likes of Anil Kumble and Ravichandran Ashwin to set a new record. In the longest format of the game, Kuldeep's 5/40 are the greatest ever by an Indian spinner versus Bangladesh. In fact, Kuldeep, Ashwin, and Sunil Joshi are the only other Indian spinners to have taken a 5-fer against Bangladesh in Test format.
