South Africa win the first two matches of the five-match T20I series between India and South Africa 2-0.
Despite the Indian team losing the first two matches, Bhuvneshwar Kumar is the only hope of the Indian team in this series. He took only one wicket in the first match. But Bhuvneshwar Kumar, who swung heavily in the 2nd match, gave up just 13 runs in 4 overs and took 4 wickets.
3 of those 4 wickets fell in the powerplay. Along with those 3 wickets, Bhuvneshwar Kumar has taken 33 wickets in Powerplay in international T20 cricket. Bhuvneshwar Kumar tops the list of bowlers who have taken the most wickets in the Powerplay, along with Samuel Badri of the West Indies and Tim Southee of New Zealand.
If he takes one wicket in the Powerplay in 3D20 against South Africa, he will surpass them and set the record for the most wickets taken by a bowler in the Powerplay.
