I And Captain Argue A Lot Over This- Kuldeep Yadav
It is well known that many Indian cricket team leaders are also active football fans and pursue sport enthusiastically. Virat Kohli, Captain of India, is known for being a big fan of Cristiano Ronaldo, and once, he said he supports the Real Madrid Spanish club in an interview. Kuldeep Yadav, a spinner from India, is a big fan of Neymar, a fellow Brazilian advance, and supports FC Barcelona in Real Madrid arch-rivals.
Kuldeep revealed a funny exchange between him and Virat over football in a recent interview with the media on his Spicy-Pitch-Youtube show.
“Brazil vs Spain was the first football match I saw in 2012 when Neymar played. I first saw him. I thought he was a fantastic player. I thought he was. His level of consistency and skill was too strong. Since then he has been my favorite player. Many people don’t like him. Captain Virat Kohli and I have much disagreement about it because he’s a fan of Ronaldo, “Kuldeep said.
I Felt Really Emotionally Attached That I Was Almost Into Tears:
“It’s all right. FC Barcelona is my favorite team. Once, for Portugal, Ronaldo scored a hat trick. So Kohli came and showed me a picture. He came to me. Messi also got a hat trick that evening, so I showed him that and said, “Watch this,” he added. This is what I thought.
Kuldeep remembered his first match in Dharamsala against Australia in 2017 during the same interview. “When I recall my Dharamsala test debut, I get emotional. The most significant thing was how I behaved at the time. Anil Sir came to me and said, ‘Tomorrow you are going to play, you have to take five sticks,’ he told me one day before the match.
Kuldeep spoke about the feeling he felt after David Warner‘s first breakthrough: “It was my first wicket check. I felt mentally attached to being nearly in tears.
