Kuldeep Yadav formed part of India’s T20 World Cup-winning squad. The left-arm spinner, however, played just one game, against Pakistan where he took one wicket. The 31-year-old, however, will be expected to play the role of lead spinner for DC along with skipper Axar Patel.

Kuldeep took 15 wickets from 14 matches to finish the 2025 IPL season as his side’s leading wicket-taker whilst bowling at a tidy economy rate of just 7.07.

The spinner comes into the 2026 edition of the tournament with huge expectations and will also be playing to win back his place as India’s lead spinner in T20I, particularly after Varun Chakravarthy’s disappointing end to the T20 World Cup.
