Tristan Stubbs had little idea that Kuldeep Yadav’s best delivery of the day would come off the first ball of a new spell and the South African admitted that his Delhi Capitals teammate made him dance to his tune despite having faced him many times in the nets.

Stubbs had hit Kuldeep for a couple of sixes and was one short of half-ton when the spinner tossed one up and it drifted in the air and started deviating after pitching. Stubbs moved his hands towards the ball without any foot movement, resulting in a regulation catch for KL Rahul at first slip. “I have faced him quite a few times. This was the first ball of his new spell and I think the best one he has bowled,” said Stubbs, who scored 49 off 113 balls.
