3. Bhuvneshwar Kumar (Sunrisers Hyderabad)
The Meerut-based right-handed pacer negotiates the accolades through his ability to swing the ball. Started his IPL career with Royal Challengers Bangalore in 2009, he then donned the Pune Warriors India’s jersey from 2011-2013 and landed up with Sunrisers Hyderabad’s contract in 2014.
Since then the swing king has become SRH’s regular member. Won the purple cap twice, once in 2016 and then in 2017, Bhuvneshwar has bowled 1164 balls that have not conceded any run. In 121 IPL games, he has picked up 136 scalps. Although he has had injury woes in the last couple of years, that hasn’t dampened Bhuvneshwar Kumar’s skills with the ball.
