3 reasons why Bhuvneshwar Kumar can be game-changer for RCB in IPL 2025

Bhuvneshwar Kumar is among the most valuable players in the Indian Premier League (IPL). He has played for many franchises, and this season, he will play for his former team, Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB). They bought him at a whopping amount of Rs. 10.75 crores. 

Bhuvneshwas is a talented bowler and has proved his worth in the tournament through consistent performance. Previously, he was with the Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH), where he won the purple cap in two consecutive seasons. RCB picked him up at a great price at the mega auction. 

Here are the three reasons why Bhuvneshwar Kumar can be a game-changer for RCB:

1. Ability to pick up wickets in powerplays

Now that RCB doesn’t have Mohammed Siraj on their team, Bhuvneshwar Kumar can come in handy in the upcoming IPL season, especially in the powerplays. He is a brilliant bowler with different variations. He bowls extremely well in the powerplays and takes early wickets as well. Having him around is a boon for the team. Even though he doesn’t have much pace, he has the ability to deceive the batters with his variations. 

2. Economical

Bhuvneshwar Kumar is one of those rare bowlers who doesn’t concede many runs in the tournament. He has been brilliant with his line and length that the batters find it difficult to under his deliveries. Hence, he will be extremely effective at the Chinnaswamy Stadium, as the ground is small. 

3. Can contribute with the bat

The bowler will not be counted in the all-rounder’s column but has the power to strike and score runs whenever possible. He swings the bat really well as per the situation and hence, will be beneficial towards the end of the innings.
