I was trying to study Kuldeep Yadav: Teja Nidamanuru. ” Kuldeep is world-class and has taken a lot of wickets,” said Netherlands’ Teja Nidamanuru.
India extended their unbeaten run in the ODI World Cup 2023 by defeating the Netherlands by 160 runs on Sunday, November 12 in Bengaluru. The hosts set a target of 411 before settling for 250 from the Dutch.
The Netherlands never threatened India throughout their run-chase, but certain hitters shown the ability to dig deep against a bowling team in red-hot form, giving the European country something to look forward to in the near future. Teja Nidamanuru batted at No. 7 and produced the Dutch’s lone half-century in the match. During his adventurous 54-ball innings, he smashed one four and six sixes. Nidamanuru handled Kuldeep Yadav admirably during his innings. After the game, he explained how he went above and above to take on the ace spinner.
“We try to be diligent and conduct analysis on our packages.” Kuldeep is a world-class bowler who has captured several wickets. “I was studying him even on the bus on our way into the ground. ” Nidamanuru cite by ESPNcricinfo as saying.
Nidamanuru’s six a great inside-out shot off Kuldeep. The right-handed hitter emphasized the significance of the effort that goes into executing a shot like that.
“I was trying to pick his wrong ‘un, watch wrist videos, see what you can see.” It’s fantastic when [good] purpose and optimism work in your favor. But it’s the labor that goes into the preparation for [the shot’s execution] that’s great,” Nidamanuru remarked.

Teja Nidamanuru points out differences between India and Netherlands
The 29-year-old praised the ‘Men in Blue’ for their performance. He also stated that the attitude of Shreyas Iyer, who made a fantastic 128 not out off 94 balls, and the way the Netherlands batted in the same portion of their innings was a major difference factor.
“You could see the difference between how Shreyas Iyer played and how we approached the middle stages.” Look, as we’ve mentioned many times before, we’re a learning team. We’re looking forward to debriefing and continuing our general progress. We’re losing five to six wickets in the middle [overs] of the game, when the top sides are going at six an over without taking chances. That is the distinction.”
Nidamanuru ended the ODI World Cup 2023 on a high note, scoring 54 and 41 not out in his final two innings
However, he was dissatisfied with his entire performance, finishing with 164 runs from seven games at an average of 27.33.
“To be honest, it’s fallen a little short. Earlier in the year, I had a couple of international hundreds, including one in the qualifiers. So when I came here, I expected to contribute more consistently for the club. That hasn’t gone as smoothly as I would have hoped, but there are some encouraging things to look forward to,” Nidamanuru added.
“In terms of where I’ve been batting personally, I think the biggest challenge has been playing spin when it’s turning and being able to do that under pressure.” It’s one thing to be able to execute it to a certain quality against teams of a different intensity or level, but when you’re here, [Ravindra] Jadeja hits the top of the stumps every time. So it’s all about being able to transform that fantastic ball into one that relieves pressure. Then, against the clock, being able to devise a strategy to mitigate some of the swing and nip in terms of how we approach it as a team. We will continue to develop on these skill sets. “This tournament has provided us with a very good reference point that will undoubtedly help us,” the Vijayawada native remarked.
