Team India leg-spinner Kuldeep Yadav praised skipper Virat Kohli for his work ethic and describes him as an inspirational leader, who provides tremendous support and freedom to bowlers.
“Virat is a leader. He gives you everything you want on the field. When I am bowling, he comes to me and asks what field I want. That’s what bowlers want to hear and he gives bowlers freedom,” Yadav said.
“He has given me tremendous support through the Test series, the ODIs and now too. So I am very happy with this kind of team unity as well as the leader.”
“Looking at him, if we can improve our fielding even by one per cent, that will be good. He talks to younger players about what he wants from them and what we need from the team,” he added.
Yadav played in the third Test at Pallekele as substitute for the suspended Ravindra Jadeja. Then he featured in the last two matches before the lone T20 game.
