During RCB's last match, Bhuvneshwar regained the Purple Cap. Against the Mumbai Indians in Raipur, he earned the Player of the Match award for his bowling figures of 4/23 and hitting a six off the first ball he faced in a last-ball thriller.
"Hashtag 'BringBackBhuvi', I'd love to see him being considered for the T20I side," Ashwin said. "Tick with the new ball, able to complete the death overs nicely, and if you need a six under pressure, he's hammering that as well in the toughest part of the ground."
In his spell, Bhuvneshwar Kumar had removed Ryan Rickelton, Rohit Sharma, and Suryakumar Yadav in the powerplay, with the latter two being dismissed off consecutive deliveries. He returned in the death overs to take the wicket of Tilak Varma as well.
Bhuvneshwar Kumar in IPL 2026 and for India
It would not be inaccurate to term Bhuvneshwar as the single biggest reason behind RCB being on top of the points table right now. Currently, he has 21 wickets in 11 matches and has wrested the Purple Cap back.
His bowling average has been an unbelievable 15.28, but his economy rate of 7.46 in this batter-charged era has arguably been the more impressive feat.
RCB's next match in IPL 2026
For their next match, Royal Challengers Bangalore will stay at their adopted home ground at the Shaheed Veer Narayan Singh International Stadium in Raipur. They will face the almost-eliminated Kolkata Knight Riders on May 13 in that fixture.
