Kuldeep tops Tykes overseas shopping list for 2027

Kuldeep Yadav heads up Yorkshire head coach Anthony McGrath’s shopping list of overseas recruits for 2027 and is confident of completing a deal to bring the popular Indian left arm wrist spinner back to the county and for a longer stint.

A hit with both colleagues and supporters alike in his two spells with Yorkshire last season, both parties are keen to make it happen again. Speaking exclusively to White Rose Files, McGrath said: “We haven’t yet signed anyone for the championship but we’ve got two spots available for overseas players.

“We’ve got Hassan Ali coming back for the T20 and middle championship games, which is brilliant and we’ll have one more spot for an overseas for the Blast.

“For the back end, after the Indian Premier League and when India finish playing, the priority is to get Kuldeep back. He’s a match winner. We know how popular he was and we’re in touch with him all the time, so hopefully we can get that done.”
