With RCB just one step away from the trophy, Bhuvneshwar's contribution has been immense. The swing king has given the defending champions early breakthroughs and controlled the flow of runs whenever the team needed it in the ongoing IPL 2026.
He has enjoyed a fantastic season with the ball. In 15 matches, Bhuvneshwar has taken 26 wickets and is currently among the leading wicket-takers of IPL 2026. Bhuvneshwar has been especially dangerous in the powerplay and became the first Indian bowler to take 25 or more wickets in an IPL season on multiple occassions.
The Master Blaster explained that the pacer has focused on bowling straighter lines and using wobble-seam deliveries instead of depending heavily on big inswingers and outswingers, and this variation has made him much harder to read for the batters.
Sachin Tendulkar explains RCB star's transformation
The former Indian captain continued, “And when you want to inswing, the seam goes towards the leg slip of a right-hander. And the wrist position also changes. But this season, if you look at Bhuvi's seam, I think it is a wobbly seam. So, when a wobbly seam comes, many times the batsman doesn't know whether the ball is going to fall out or in. And that is what Bhuvi has been doing. He has been very, very accurate if you see. His lines have been very, very tight.”
Why batters can't read Bhuvneshwar Kumar? Sachin Tendulkar explains
Tendulkar, who is considered one of the greatest batters ever, has pointed out that batters are often unsure whether the ball will move away, come back in, or continue straight after pitching, and that uncertainty has given Bhuvneshwar a huge advantage throughout the IPL 2026.
And that gain either goes out or comes in. So that becomes a little difficult to pick because the signal is less from the wrist. And in a wobbly seam, many times when the seam lands like this, the ball goes out. And when it lands like this, it comes in or stays straight. So that has been Bhuvi's success mantra for this season. He has been bowling exceedingly well.”
