While denying that he has made changes to his bowling action, the left-arm spinner admitted that he has worked on his rhythm with the ball in hand. He said:“I just worked on my rhythm, tried to be more aggressive and it's helped me a lot. The action is the same, just trying to be aggressive in the rhythm.”On the Chattogram surface, he stated that bowling in the second innings was more challenging. Kuldeep elaborated:“First innings the pitch was quicker than the second innings. There was some pace in the first innings, but the second innings was very challenging. It was slower. so I was trying to work on my rhythm and bowl quicker.Asked why wrist spinners seem to have that extra edge over finger spinners, the 28-year-old replied:“Probably more revs on the ball makes it challenging for the batters and it is difficult to step down and drive as well.”After eight Tests, Kuldeep has 34 scalps to his name at an average of 21.55 with three five-wicket hauls.
