The Indian China-man is the latest sensation of international cricket. He is been making the talks and debates every nook and corner around the cricketing world. His current IPL franchise is not his first one, it was Mumbai Indians who picked him first in the cash-rich league.

In 2012, Mumbai Indians were in hunger to grab some young talents in the auctions, as a result, they added five uncapped players in their side. Kuldeep was one of them and he was the only one equipped with wrist spinning option.

He earned his call-up to the Mumbai nets because of his all-round performance in Cooch Behar Trophy in 2012. He scalped six wickets and scored a half-century in the knock out stage in the under-19 tournament.

However, Mumbai side never has given him a chance to showcase his arsenal of tweaks. He used to be a net bowler in the Mumbai camp until 2014.

He was picked up by Gambhir led KKR in 2014, where he has had to wait for two years to make his IPL debut.

Now he is an integral member of the Indian side and also he has replaced veteran spinner Ashwin in the limited overs format.
