Cricket News: A player who played for Team India in the World Test Championship has taken a big decision to improve his performance and stay in rhythm. This player of Team India was dropped from the Test team after the World Test Championship Final 2023. We are talking about Indian fast bowler Umesh Yadav. Umesh Yadav has signed for Division One English county side Essex for the remainder of the 2023 Championship season.

Umesh Yadav replaced this player

Let us tell you that with three matches left in the season, he will replace injured New Zealand fast bowler Doug Bracewell, making him the second active overseas player to join the team this season after South Africa's Simon Harmer. This will be Umesh's second county season. He played for Middlesex in Division Two last season, taking four wickets. But after three matches, he could not play further due to injury.

What did Umesh Yadav say

Umesh will feature in Essex's run for the final ODI in the remaining matches against Middlesex, Hampshire and Northamptonshire. In a media report released by the club, Umesh said: "I am delighted to join Essex and look forward to making a significant contribution to the team's success." He said he had enjoyed playing for Middlesex last season and it would be a good comeback. It would be nice to test yourself by playing in these conditions again. Umesh has played 57 Tests, 75 ODIs and nine T20 Internationals for India, taking 288 international wickets. He last played for India two months back in the ICC World Test Championship final against Australia at The Oval.
