IPL 2016: Indian XI of the tournament

9. Bhuvneshwar Kumar – SRH:

Bhuvneshwar Kumar had a fantastic season. The swing bowler overcame struggles with injury and form to snap 23 wickets in 16 games and finish as the highest wicket-taker this season. He was a crucial cog in the highly effective Sunrisers Hyderabad bowling attack which played an important role in SRH’s successful campaign. He led the attack wonderfully in the absence of veteran Ashish Nehra. His bowling at the death was also another glittering feature of his bowling.
