Rajasthan Royals shared a video of the apprentice Kuldeep Sen taking tips from the master Lasith Malinga ahead of IPL 2023
Rajasthan Royals reached the finals of the Indian Premier League (IPL) last year but their dream run came to an end in the summit clash after a seven-wicket defeat at the hands of Gujarat Titans. Rajasthan Royals will be aiming to go one step forward this time and lift the prestigious IPL trophy for the second time in the history of the tournament.
Ahead of the IPL 2023 campaign, the Rajasthan-based franchise decided to share a glimpse of their preparations. Rajasthan Royals posted a video on Instagram in which their fast bowling coach Lasith Malinga could be seen giving some instructions to pacer Kuldeep Sen. The youngster’s performance in the nets eventually pleased Malinga and the former Sri Lanka fast bowler was even heard uttering the word, ‘perfect’ multiple times.
“Learning from the best,” Rajasthan Royals wrote on social media while sharing the post.
