The best and living example of the word consistency (consistency) in cricket is Bhuvneshwar Kumar.
Exactly a decade ago, that is, 10 years ago, in the IPL tournament held, it was none other than none other than the super magician born in India, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, who made the opposing batsmen kneel and wrote his name in golden letters as the highest wicket-taker.
Surprisingly, even after a long period of 10 years has passed since then and the game of cricket has gone up and down, Bhuvneshwar’s super rhythm has not changed. In a huge tournament like IPL, where the strongest batsmen in the world are afraid to even dream, he has managed to take the lead in wicket-taking this time too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is not easy for a fast bowler to maintain his fitness, line and length at the same level for such a long time. While hundreds of new players are emerging with the energy of youth, it is truly a blessing to see a bowler like Bhuvneshwar playing live, who uses his experience and talent as his only weapon and becomes more and more fierce as he gets older.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
