In a display of pinpoint bowling accuracy, Indian pacer Siddarth Kaul has reminded cricket fans of his skills with a clinical wicket-taking delivery while representing Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH). The moment was captured in a video posted on his Instagram account that has cricket enthusiasts talking.

The video shows Kaul in the familiar orange jersey of SRH, executing a perfect delivery that rattles the stumps, clean bowling the batsman. The caption “(Wait for it) Kaul does the business!!!” aptly describes the moment, as viewers are treated to a textbook example of pace bowling culminating in the satisfying sound of timber being disturbed.

The Perfect Delivery

In the video footage, Kaul can be seen approaching the crease with his trademark run-up before delivering a ball that leaves the batsman completely deceived. The ball pitches in the perfect area and moves just enough to beat the bat and hit the stumps. The celebration that follows shows Kaul’s passion for the game as he rejoices with his teammates after taking the wicket.

What makes the clip particularly engaging is the musical backdrop featuring popular artist Yo Yo Honey Singh, adding a rhythmic element to the cricketing action. The post has been tagged with various trending hashtags including #cricketer, #ipl, #srh, and #hyderabad, connecting it to the wider cricketing community.

Kaul’s Journey With Sunrisers Hyderabad

Siddarth Kaul has shared a special relationship with Sunrisers Hyderabad over the years. The right-arm medium-fast bowler has been one of the franchise’s reliable performers in the Indian Premier League. His ability to bowl effectively in different phases of the game, particularly at the death, made him a valuable asset for the team during his stint.

Kaul’s journey with SRH saw him emerge as one of their leading wicket-takers in certain seasons, with his variations and yorkers proving difficult for batsmen to handle. The latest video serves as a reminder of the skills that made him a regular pick for the franchise.

From International Cricket To Retirement

Kaul announced his retirement from international cricket through an emotional Instagram post. In his retirement message, he reflected on his journey from a child playing cricket in Punjab to representing India internationally. “When I was a child playing cricket in the fields in Punjab, I had one dream. A dream to represent my country. In 2018, by Gods grace, I received my India Cap Number 75 in the T20i team and Cap Number 221 in the ODI team,” Kaul wrote.

His international career included appearances for India in both ODIs and T20Is, with his debut coming in 2017. Though his international stint was relatively brief, Kaul made his mark in domestic cricket and the IPL, where he represented teams including Delhi Daredevils, Sunrisers Hyderabad, and Royal Challengers Bangalore.

New Innings As A Cricket Analyst

Since his retirement from international cricket, Kaul has ventured into cricket analysis. In March 2025, he joined Cricxtasy’s expert panel for IPL 2025 season coverage. The announcement was made on Instagram with the caption “Big Announcement! Siddharth Kaul Joining Cricxtasy Experts Panel for this IPL 2025 Season!”

In one of his recent analysis videos, Kaul discussed why Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) has the biggest fan base in the IPL, attributing it to the “King Kohli effect.” He also shared his thoughts on Virat Kohli’s form in IPL 2025, analyzing whether the star batsman retired too soon from T20I cricket given his continued excellence in the league.

Community Involvement

Beyond cricket, Kaul has been actively involved in community initiatives. In March 2025, he served as the Chief Guest at the “Run for Martyrs” event organized by Shor Foundation at Chandigarh Club. The marathon, dedicated to honoring India’s bravehearts, brought together over 1,000 participants and featured other notable guests including Vishal Batra (twin brother of Param Vir Chakra awardee Capt. Vikram Batra) and Major DP Singh (India’s first blade runner and Kargil War veteran).

Siddarth Kaul was born on May 19, 1990, in Pathankot, Punjab, and was part of the Indian squad that won the Under-19 Cricket World Cup in 2008 under Virat Kohli’s captaincy. His consistent performances in domestic cricket eventually led to his international debut, though he played only three ODIs and three T20Is for India.

As Kaul continues his journey in cricket through analysis and special appearances, clips like the recent wicket-taking delivery serve as a reminder of the skills that made him a formidable bowler at his peak. For fans of Sunrisers Hyderabad and Indian cricket, Kaul’s contributions to the game remain appreciated, with social media providing the perfect platform to relive those memorable moments.
