However, he missed out on selection for the Under-19 World Cup, which India eventually went on to win under the leadership of Unmukt Chand, later that year.  Does Kuldeep Yadav smoke: Not Known  Kuldeep was a part of the Mumbai Indians squad during the 2012 edition of IPL but didn't get to play even a single game.  Does Kuldeep Yadav drink alcohol: Not Known  Although Kuldeep started as a fast bowler when he first joined a cricket academy in Kanpur, he later switched to chinaman on the advice of his then coach, Kapil Pandey.
