India vs South Africa: Kuldeep Yadav Explained His Succeed in 1st ODI

India overhauled with six wickets in hand to take a 1-0 lead in the six-match ODI series. Kuldeep made his successful international debut last year, credited Mahendra Singh Dhoni for his success in his first outing on the South African soil. "Actually I was confused a bit what I should bowl because I am playing in South Africa for the first time and it was a new experience for me. The wind was good and the ball was drifting so I was confused what to bowl, and which variation to use. So I was asking Mahi Bhai (Dhoni) and he told me 'bowl as you are bowling'. It is good that he keeps advising from behind the wickets, it gets easier," said Yadav. 
Kuldeep, who finished with 3 for 34 in 10 overs, removed JP Duminy, David Miller, and Chris Morris to star India's historic win. "When you have two legends, Virat (Kohli) and Mahi, one is leading the team and the other has led the team, it is helpful. As a spinner, Mahi Bhai does 50 percent of your work because he has played so much for cricket. He reads the batsmen easily," the spinner said. "We are youngsters and we don't have that much experience. That is why he (Dhoni) keeps telling me what to do in that situation. The mindset comes from the captain. The 23-year-old also said his task was made easier by skipper Virat Kohli, who believes in his abilities.
