Axar Patel was captured by Bhuvneshwar Kumar using a fierce yorker in the match between SRH And DC.
Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) and Delhi Capitals (DC) are playing in the 34th game of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad.
Bhuvneshwar Kumar, a seasoned Indian fast bowler has come under fire recently for not performing at his peak. But when he is in top form, he bamboozles batters with his swing.
The Indian pacer once more proved his talent by outwitting Axar Patel with a toe-crushing yorker that nipped back into the air. Delhi Capitals struggled against Sunrisers Hyderabad scoring 138/7 after 19 overs.
With the type of swing he produced throughout the innings, Bhuvneshwar was the second-best bowler after Washington Sundar, who took three crucial wickets in one over.
His enchanted inswinger was responsible for Axar Patel’s prized wicket and the attention it garnered. Axar Patel was facing the ball with the intention of controlling the run rate as the Indian pacer delivered the 18th over of the inning.
However, Bhuvneshwar Kumar had other ideas and he bowled the southpaw batter a fiery yorker. Axar was going to flick the ball but it abruptly swung back into him, causing the batter to completely miss the delivery line.
Axar Patel was fired by Bhuvneshwar Kumar in the following video.
Additionally, Twitter users praised Bhuvneshwar Kumar for his toe-crushing yorker and noted his bowling prowess.

Additionally, spinners are proving to be a better option in death. Particularly in the first innings as pitches become slower in a number of venues.
While the pacers went for 11.41, they gave away 8.95 RPO. With dew setting in during the second innings, the pacers appear to bowl more frequently.
The final result is this, despite everything. The rest may not be as important if pacers can successfully throw yorkers in that rectangular zone like Arshdeep and Kumar have.
