Kuldeep Yadav had to leave the field after hurting his shoulder during the original IPL 2025 match between Delhi Capitals and Rajasthan Royals at the Arun Jaitley Stadium. The Chinaman bowler sustained the injury when he dived at deep fine leg to stop a boundary.
The left-arm spinner fell on his left hand and shoulder while saving the boundary for his team. However, before walking off the field, Kuldeep had completed his four overs, conceding 33 runs and taking the important wicket of Yashasvi Jaiswal in the match against the Rajasthan Royals.
