Shubman Gill praises Kuldeep Yadav's match-winning spell against West Indies

India secured a comfortable eight-wicket victory against the visiting West Indies squad on September 27, 2026, during the opening fixture of the ODI series. Despite conceding a 135-run opening stand and facing the prospect of a massive target, the hosts clawed their way back thanks to left-arm spinner Kuldeep Yadav.

Claiming four wickets while conceding 40 runs across his ten overs, Yadav triggered a dramatic middle-order collapse that ultimately held the opposition to a total of 300 runs. Following this decisive bowling display, skipper Shubman Gill and Virat Kohli combined for a commanding 151-run partnership, successfully chasing down the target with 50 deliveries remaining.
