There’s no denying the fact that the presence of Kuldeep Yadav in the playing XI of the Indian cricket team adds an x-factor. He never fails to prove that he is an asset for the Indian cricket team. He has rescued India from tough situations many times, with his mesmerizing spells.
In the second ODI against West Indies, Kuldeep Yadav went on to take his second ODI hat-trick. He became the first Indian bowler to claim two ODI hat-tricks. His first ODI hat-trick came in the year 2017 against the Australian cricket team at the Eden Gardens of Kolkata.

Hat tricks in ODIs:
Lasith Malinga – 3 in 226 matches.
Kuldeep Yadav – 2 in 55 matches.
Saqlain Mushtaq – 2 in 169 matches.•Kuldeep Yadav is the fastest to take 2 ODI hat tricks, also the first Indian to achieve this landmark.

Kuldeep Yadav becomes the first left arm Chinaman to take 2 hat tricks in ODI cricket, and this guy has played only 55 ODIs. What a bowler, what a talent!!
