Colombo: Defending the struggling Kuldeep Yadav, India's spin bowling coach Sairaj Bahutule on Friday asserted that the left-arm wrist spinner is in the team management's "scheme of things" ahead of the second Test, and said one mediocre outing will not define the bowler.
Kuldeep could only pick one wicket while bowling 25 overs across two innings in the first Test, whereas left-arm spinner Manav Suthar and Ravindra Jadeja shared 14 wickets among them.
