Melbourne, Aug 23 (IANS) Ahead of the five-match Test series against Australia later this year, India spinner Kuldeep Yadav is looking forward to the great cricket contest between the two powerhouses of world cricket.
Expressing his enthusiasm, Kuldeep said, “It’s great to be here at Cricket Australia’s headquarters and the iconic MCG. I’m looking forward to the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, and we’re anticipating a great cricket contest between Australia and India this year.”
He also acknowledged the unwavering support of Indian cricket fans, stating, “India cricket fans always support the team around the globe, and I’m confident they will come in big numbers for the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, especially during the Boxing Day Test.”
Kuldeep, who is currently in Melbourne on a short family trip, recently made a significant stop at the iconic Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG). During his visit, the spinner posed for a photo with the statue of his idol, the late Shane Warne, outside the stadium.
