On the World Cup final loss, Kuldeep Yadav says, ‘For a week, I kept thinking about what I could have done differently’

The spinner of team India, Kuldeep Yadav, said it took him ten days to get over the ODI World Cup loss against Australia as he kept thinking about what he could have done differently on that night.

He told reporters, "The first week or ten days after the final were the most difficult. It was not easy to get that thought away from my mind. I keep thinking about what I could have done differently. Cricket is very unpredictable; most of the time, you don’t get the desired result. You learn and move forward.”

Kuldeep Yadav made it a memorable birthday with figures of 5/17 in 2.5 overs.

He said, “It was special. I never thought that I would pick five wickets. I just wanted the team to win the match, and I am happy to contribute. I was a bit concerned about my rhythm, as I was bowling after a while. It was a perfect day; the ball was leaving the hand nicely, and the condition was also suited for the spinners.”
