#4. Bhuvneshwar Kumar’s death over bowling

Bhuvneshwar Kumar’s death bowling will be crucial for SRH

KKR might have beaten SRH earlier in the tournament but this time, they sure have their work cut out for them and one of the primary reasons for this is the fact that SRH have one of the finest death bowlers in the world in Bhuvneshwar Kumar. Bhuvi’s versatility enables him to take wickets as well as contain runs.

He has been one of the finest death bowlers in the tournament so far and is currently the holder of the purple cap with 18 wickets at a brilliant economy rate of 6.34. KKR will definitely be wary of Bhuvneshwar Kumar and it won’t be easy for Gambhir and the other batsmen to play his overs.
