"He has not changed at least since the time I have been around. He is good to play under and there are exciting times ahead," Hilfenhaus said.
The Aussie took the important wickets of Mike Hussey and Rohit Sharma in CSK's seven-wicket win over Mumbai Indians in the Indian Premier League last night.
It was a dominant performance by CSK who made it three wins in a row after a blip in the first match of the tournament.
Asked how good he is feeling about his bowling, he said, "I have not been bad at times I would say. There are certain things that I feel I need to improve at. It gets tough to spend time in the nets when you have such a hectic schedule but hopefully we can keep improving in those couple of days between matches."
The 31-year-old has been guiding the CSK pace attack that includes young bowlers like Ishwar Pandey and Mohit Sharma.
"I am definitely there to help them out and help them grow as fast bowlers. They both are developing really well and they have stood up in the first initial days of the tournament and done well. These are exciting times for Chennai Super Kings.
