It is unusual for Bhuvneshwar Kumar to concede 16, 14 and 19 runs in the 19th overs respectively in the last 3 matches. These are Bhuvneshwar Kumar’s most run-scoring overs while keeping the target at bay. Bhuvneshwar’s bowling made us wonder if it was a mistake to sit Arshdeep Singh.
Bhuvneshwar Kumar’s style of bowling is such a bowler that he can kill the chances of his balls going astray, especially in T20Is. Venkatesa Prasad is just like him. Bhuvneshwar Kumar lacks pace. Need pace to plug yorkers.
Then, if you have that speed, the batsmen will startle and get out of the game even when you bowl slow balls. Bhuvneshwar doesn’t have the ability to stun the batsmen in releasing the ball like Bumrah and has a very long action. His action can be easily picked up. Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Kevin Pietersen didn’t bowl to all the players like Sehwag, if he had he would have known about his bowling. So if Bhuvneshwar Kumar doesn’t bowl accurately then he will be taken away, this is a disadvantage in his action. 4 overs should be bowled with the new ball. If you buy Sathu, you should have alternate bowlers and not bring him in the last overs, if the opponent has a weak batsman in the middle, you can give him an over.
But the real problem was that yesterday, both Matthew Wade and Graham Greene simply bowled fours without changing their positions to any great extent, without attempting scoop shots, side-sweeps, etc. Bhuvneshwar Kumar’s problem is that batsmen can hit boundaries without changing their stance in the absence of fielders. All this can’t be changed anymore, one has to lift Bhuvneshwar Kumar. Or use him skillfully, which requires the brains of the captain.
