"Kuldeep (Yadav) is doing very well and the credit goes to Anil Bhai (Anil Kumble). He worked really hard with him," Raina told reporters at an event here.
"I was talking to him (Kuldeep) in the IPL and he always use to message Anil Bhai. He is the product of Anil Kumble.
"He (Kuldeep) has done well with (former Australian chinaman) Brad Hogg. He is the guy who will change everything in bowling department," he said.
Raina along with Olympian Kavita Raut launched the logo of Skechers Performance Goa River Marathon which will be held on December 10.
Raina has been out of the Indian team for a long time and the 30-year-old said he is working hard to earn his place back in the team.
"I am working hard and there is nothing tough in life, if you enjoy your process and enjoy your cricket and I have always done that," he said.
There were reports that Raina failed the Yo Yo Test.
Asked about it, Raina quipped, "You (the reporters) speak to BCCI."
Raina-led Uttar Pradesh lost to Railways in the Ranji Trophy opener after they were bundled out for 72 in the fourth innings chasing 94.
On the loss, Raina said, "The boys are still learning. The wicket was little different. We have still five more games to go and after that match we had a chat.
