Indian spinner Kuldeep Yadav has been included in the Uttar Pradesh (UP) squad for their Ranji Trophy match against Madhya Pradesh at Holkar Stadium in Indore from Thursday onwards. Kuldeep, having not played any competitive cricket since the first Test against New Zealand at Bengaluru in October 2024, is making his return to the sport after a hernia surgery, as per ESPNCricinfo. With both UP and MP out of contention for the quarterfinals, Kuldeep will get some quality game time to check his fitness and rhythm ahead of the three-match ODI series against England from February 6 onwards. Kuldeep is a part of that series and in the provisional ICC Champions Trophy squad as well.

On Monday, he had thanked the National Cricket Academy (NCA) staff for their help in his recovery. Taking to social media, he had written, "Recovery takes a team. Grateful to the NCA and it's team for all the work behind the scenes!"
