Bhuvneshwar has taken 198 wickets in 190 matches played in IPL at an average of 27.33 and economy of 7.69. If he is successful in taking two wickets, he will become the second bowler to take 200 or more wickets in IPL.
So far, only spinner Yuzvendra Chahal has been able to reach this figure, with 221 wickets in 172 innings.
Bhuvneshwar is currently at third place in terms of taking most wickets in Indian T-20 cricket. He has taken 335 wickets in 315 innings and will have a chance to touch the mark of 350 wickets in T20 in the upcoming season of IPL.
Let us tell you that Australian fast bowler Josh Hazlewood will not play in the first few matches of RCB. In such a situation, Bhuvneshwar’s responsibility in the fast bowling department will increase further.
Bhuvneshwar played an important role in RCB winning the title last season and took 17 wickets in 14 matches, in which 3 wickets for 33 runs was his best performance.
