Four wickets in his debut innings against the number 2 ranked Test team in the world and Kuldeep Yadav has had a dream debut.

David Warner, Peter Handscomb, Glenn Maxwell and Pat Cummins are the four scalps he has in his kitty as India managed to get Australia all out on 300.

But which of the wickets did he enjoy the most? Which one is the bowlers’ pick?

Ravi Shastri ended all the guessing games by asking the bowler the question in the post match presentation and here’s what the 22-year-old had to say:

I really enjoyed the Handscomb wicket the most(out of my four). I really set a plan for him. I showed him that I was bowling a wrong ‘un but I bowled him the chinaman. He was confused and got bowled.
