Bhuvneshwar Kumar odds

Bhuvneshwar Kumar has been one of leading pacers in the Indian bowling lineup across all three formats of cricket.

The journey certainly has not been an easy one as he was dropped from the side after conceding over 100 runs in a one-day against South Africa in 2015. The 28-year old went back and played a fair amount of cricket at the domestic level to build on his strengths and work his way back into the side.

Kumar has certainly worked hard on his fitness and is a genuine swing bowler who can move the ball both ways. The seamer is a dangerous customer when there is plenty on offer for the fast bowlers.

He did a commendable job for India with bat and ball in the 2017/18 test recent series in South Africa and will be one of the players to watch out for in the upcoming Indian Premier League. He has certainly improved a lot after being snubbed by selectors in 2015.
