Bhuvneshwar Kumar is expected to play his 200th IPL match against Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) at Ekana Cricket Stadium on Thursday, May 7. The Bengaluru-based team is in third place in the table with 6 wins from 9 matches.
In a video shared by Royal Challengers Bengaluru on X, Virat Kohli showered praise on Bhuvneshwar Kumar. Kohli said that Bhuvneshwar is one of the finest fast bowlers in the game, considering his ability to deliver consistently under pressure across formats.
“The thing that stands out for me with Bhuvi has always been his understanding of the game and his cricket smarts. He's probably been among the top three pacers in IPL history. If you look at his economy, the number of wickets he's taken, and the amount of dot balls he bowls every game, it’s remarkable. He’s someone you can trust under pressure every single time. To maintain that level of skill and execution over so many years is a great achievement.”

“I think his skill set is second to none. Swing bowling at its highest level. The lengths he hits consistently, moving the ball both ways, and the way he reads the game are exceptional. For someone who bowls the first over almost every match, his communication and ability to assess conditions quickly are key,” Hazlewood said.
