Ahead of the India vs New Zealand 3rd T20I of the ongoing 5-match series, while there are some concerns over Bhuvneshwar Kumar, former New Zealand National Cricket Team fast bowler Tim Southee explained why the 36-year-old is important for the India National Cricket Team in this series and why he returned with two back-to-back lackluster performances in New Zealand.
“You look at his skill and experience that is vitally important in Jasprit Bumrah’s absence,” the former New Zealand fast bowler told the Hindustan Times.
He'll have an impact: Tim Southee on Bhuvneshwar Kumar
“So, I think it's been a very well-deserved recall. He's been one of the top performers in the IPL for the last few years. I think he'll bounce back. It's his first time back playing international cricket for a while. So, I'm sure he'll have an impact at some stage in the series," Tim Southee continued.
Tim Southee explains why Bhuvneshwar Kumar lacked flair
Unlike generating express speed behind the deliveries, moving the ball in both ways is Bhuvneshwar Kumar's main strength. On the batting-friendly surfaces, he was able to produce significant swing.
"In T20 cricket, you sort of break it down into each delivery as an individual battle, and if you see there's swing on offer, then you try and maximise that. If there's no swing, then you have to go do other skills that you've got. If it does swing, then things are certainly a lot easier," he added further in the same interview.
