Bhuvneshwar Kumar, known as the wicket specialist of IPL with a stat record of 137 wickets in 122 matches, proved once again why he called so with his magical bowling performance against RCB in today’s match by taking RCB opener Devdutt Padikkal’s wicket.
Bhuvneshwar Kumar is known for his unpredictable bowling action, he conceded his first over with 6 runs and no wickets, but in the second over he bowled the ball into the perfect length which pushed the ball to the southpaw, Padikkal was a little wrong in judging the length and realized there was no room as he hit the ball on the left of mid-wicket. Fielder Shahbaz Nadeem brilliantly took the catch making no mistake and Padikkal 11 (13) was forced to the Pavillion by Bhuvneshwar Kumar landing a blow to RCB’s early scoring dreams in the powerplay.
