Indian left-arm wrist-spinner Kuldeep Yadav has signed as an overseas player with Yorkshire for five One-Day Cup matches and three County Championship fixtures later in the season, beginning with a Friday debut against Glamorgan. Yorkshires management says his proven international pedigree and left-arm spin will add a valuable dimension, especially given the dry English summer that could boost spin’s role. Kuldeep expressed pride in joining a historic club and looking forward to testing himself in English conditions and contributing to Headingley’s success. The move follows his omission from India’s ODI squad in England, with selectors citing pitch conditions and the team’s balance as factors. Yorkshire’s announcement highlighted his experience and expected impact in both limited-overs and first-class formats, placing him among a growing list of Indian players turning out for English counties. He is set to return for the final three County Championship fixtures in September after completing the Five One-Day Cup assignments.
