In the ongoing test series between India and England, the selection committee has played quite a role for the team. In the first series going with experience, selectors picked Bumrah and Ishant Sharma following Ravichandran Ashwin, Shahbaaz Nadeem, and Washington Sundar.
However, fans were not happy with the playing XI squad of team India. Some criticized the move to drop Siraj considering the fact that he was the one who led the bowling department and took the most number of wickets against Australia. Also, left-arm spinner Kuldeep Yadav was not at all in the picture. This came out as a big shock for Kuldeep’s fans. So after his inclusion in the second test, many were hoping for some magical spells from the left-arm spinner but Ashwin taking all the limelight, Kuldeep hardly manages to bowl some overs.
On the last day when India was in a driver’s seat, Kuldeep Yadav finally took his first wicket in the series dismissing England wicketkeeper, Ben Foakes. And little did we know, Twitteratis had already started celebrating Kuldeep’s first wicket by either sharing memes or by expressing their emotions.

Saw ‘Kuldeep Yadav’ more on my TL during 1st Test than the second. Max of 2 wickets on a rank turner.
If it was Nadeem doing this, he would’ve been crucified.
