Kuldeep Yadav slapped Rinku Singh after IPL 2025 Clash. KKR Star’s shocking response goes viral

Kuldeep Yadav was slapped on the camera after an IPL 2025 encounter between Delhi Capital and Kolkata Knight Riders on Tuesday. In the video that went viral on social media, both cricketers were seen laughing with some other players. However, Kuldeep suddenly slapped Rinku twice (perhaps in a playful way), but it did not go down well with the KKR star. Rinku was surprised by the action and he looked angry even before talking to his India partner. While the context of the entire incident was not clear because no audio was available, social media was not happy with Kuldeep’s action and went to demand his ban from the BCCI.
Kolkata Knight Riders defeated Delhi capitals by 14 runs to keep their IPL play-off hopes alive.

Earlier, Angkrish Raghuvanshi (44 in 32 balls) top score for KKR.
Mitchell Starc (3/43) took three wickets for the hosts, while spinner Exer 2/27 and Nigam (2/41) stuck with two wickets with two wickets.
Speaking during the performance after the match, Narin said, “This was the attempt of the total team, we started with the bat in the middle overs with the bat with Ankie (Angkrish) and Rinku. I still returned to come back and distribute to the team. When you start well and struggle and then you do not start well and do not end well.”
“These are all wickets (he enjoys the most on wickets), it’s not a wicket that I like. It is not the biggest fielder, but it is always good to get a good run-out whenever possible. (Running-out KL Rahul) Just throw the swing and ball as much as possible.”
He said, “Always want to be able to give the Captain the option to go for you in a state of pressure. If you want to be that player, you have to work hard even when there is no training,” he concluded.
