Nandlal Shivlal Yadav pronunciation (born January 26, 1957, Hyderabad, Andhra Pradesh) is a former Indian cricketer who played in 35 Tests and 7 ODIs from 1979 to 1987.
A right arm offbreak bowler, he made his Test debut in 1979 during a rebuilding stage in Indian cricket with their spin quartet breaking up. His debut series, against Australia, was a success with 24 wickets in the five Tests and he did enough to force Srinivasaraghavan Venkataraghavan out of the side. He played regularly for India until 1987, forming a new spin trio with Shastri and Doshi.
He lost his place in the side briefly in a period in the early 80's but returned successfully against the touring West Indian side in 1983-84 where he took 5 wickets for 131 runs in the first innings of the 4th Test at Bombay.
Against Australia in 1985-86 he picked up 15 wickets in the 3 Test series. This haul included career best match figures of 8/118 in the Test at Sydney. His best innings figures came against Sri Lanka at Nagpur with 5/76. He brought up his 100th Test wicket in his penultimate Test, against Pakistan.
