The most important objective for Kuldeep to play in the second Test was to finish the tail. He brings his googly and wrong'un with him, which is very effective in removing the tail quickly.
Tailenders often become frustrating for the bowling team. India lost the first Test against England because bowlers were unable to contain the English tail. In Kuldeep, India will have that specialist who is very effective in limiting the target for bowling side by removing the opposition's tail early.
