The India National Cricket Team has made three changes in their playing XI, but still Kuldeep Yadav did not find a place for the fourth Test against England at the Old Trafford Cricket Ground in Manchester. There were many calls for the inclusion of Kuldeep Yadav for this victory game.
However, the Indian think tank otherwise decided, as he gave the first cap to young pacer Ansul Kamboj for the fourth Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy Test in Manchester. Interestingly, Indian captain Shubman Gill has not mentioned anything about the continuous snub of the Chinaman bowler in the five -match Test series against England.
3 changes, but still there is no place for Kuldeep Yadav in India
India’s major belief in Ansul Kamboj and Shardul Thakur disappointed many fans in comparison to match-winner Kuldeep Yadav. Many people are banging the team management calls and suggested that Kuldeep should have been raised beyond the struggling all -rounder Shardul Thakur.

In fact, Shardul Thakur was brought back to the XI to play in place of the injured Nitish Kumar Reddy. On the other hand, Karun Nair was dropped due to poor appearance and was replaced by Sai Reformson, while Kamboj came deep for the Manchester Test for the injured fast bowler Akash.
Here is told how fans react to Kuldeep Yadav’s constant snub in the Test series:
Kuldeep Yadav, what did you do to hate him very much with him. We need you in this pitch goddonate #ENGVIND #ENGVSIND

Why Shardul Thakur ??
Kuldeep Yadav will add diversity as he is an unconventional left -handed bowler.– Shrin (@shring) July 23, 2025

Until you can bat, you cannot go to a foreign India Test XI as a spinner.
But then, no more reliable test batsman than Kulip Yadav Shardul Thakur ??

The selection of Gambhir and Gill team is useless. Always looking for an additional batsman for a good bowler. He has destroyed a rare talent like Kuldeep Yadav which will run in any team. How stupid can they be in repeatedly taking Shardul? This is a one -day match team. #INDVSENG

Every coach and captain of India has a group of FAV cricketers, which they give a long rope.
But all of them hate Kuldeep Yadav. So upset– Meghahaha (@Themeghefect) July 23, 2025
Why not Shardul Thakur and Kuldeep Yadav ????

I must have included Kuldeep Yadav instead of R Jadeja. We need a spin bowler. Jadeja is not taking wickets these days, we are not only batting intelligent in the perspective of bowling, these pitches are full road that anyone can bat here. #INDVSENG

I have to say that I would be surprised that India has not played Kuldeep Yadav in this series, who are going to take such good wickets and score and for him you could leave any bowler in the team, besides Jasprit Bumrah Siraj has not spent him in the last game.
