[edit] Domestic career

Kaul made his debut for the Punjab cricket team against Orissa in the 2007-08 Ranji Trophy, where he took a five wicket haul in the first innings.[1] He has also made appearances for the Punjab youth teams, at Under-15, Under-17 and Under-19 levels.[2]

[edit] Indian Premier League

Unlike other youth players, a number of members of the victorious India Under-19s team from the 2008 Under-19 Cricket World Cup and other specified youngsters were named as players to be drafted by teams in the Indian Premier League, whilst other youth players would have to be chosen to play for their local teams.[3] Kaul was chosen by the Kolkata Knight Riders, based in Kolkata, West Bengal, and captained by Sourav Ganguly.[4]

[edit] Youth international career

Kaul was named in the squad for the India U-19s team for the 2008 Under-19 World Cup in Malaysia. He played in all of India's matches as they proceeded to the final, where they defeated the South African U-19 cricket team by 12 runs (adjusted by the DL method).[5] He took 10 wickets at an average of 15.40, putting him joint tenth on the list of highest wicket-takers for the tournament.[6]
