In a video shared by RCB on Twitter, Karthik said of Kuldeep: “I think technically he's made a few changes. I don't want to get too technical, but he's strengthened his run-up, getting the drive-through, which is good to see. I think he has always been a very very skillful bowler.”
The keeper added, “I always love watching him bowl when he is in his peak rhythm. He's somebody who is very very skillful, you've to understand that 'chinaman' is a very rare breed and he chose that as his profession, and he's somebody who's done very very well.”
He concluded, “It is great to see somebody like him do so well because he was very young when he sprung on the scene but today after a certain amount of international cricket and IPL behind him, obviously went through some tough time, you can see how he has bounced back and I give him a lot of credit.”
