Bhuvneshwar Kumar represented PWI in 31 games and bagged 24 wickets at an economy of around 7

The Indian pacer has played for three different franchises in the Indian Premier League - Royal Challengers Bangalore, the now-defunct Pune Warriors India and Sunrisers Hyderabad.

One of the finest bowlers of this generation, Bhuvneshwar Kumar was bought by Royal Challengers Bangalore in 2009. However, he had a forgettable start to his IPL career as he did not get an opportunity to wear the Red jersey in 2009 and 2010.

Then, he was picked by Pune Warriors India in 2011 and spent three seasons with them. Bhuvneshwar Kumar represented PWI in 31 games and bagged 24 wickets at an economy of around 7.

But, he became successful in the Indian Premier League after moving to Sunrisers Hyderabad in the 2014 IPL season. In 2016, he picked 23 wickets for Sunrisers Hyderabad and helped his team to clinch their maiden IPL title.
