Made this shameful record on IPL debut
In IPL 2024, Lucknow Super Giants was bought by Lucknow Super Giants for Rs 20 lakh. He also got a chance to debut in this season. But he returned to the pavilion in the first over itself against Mumbai Indians in the 48th match of IPL 2024. That means he lost his wicket on the very first ball of his IPL career. With this, Kulkarni became the second opener to be out on a golden duck in the first IPL innings. Earlier this had happened with Joe Denly. Kulkarni got a chance to play as an impact substitute. After this he played another match, but in that match too he could score only 8 runs.
