IPL 2022: Best XI from the sixth week
Only 19 league-stage games are left in the tournament and the top four are yet to be decided.
8. Bhuvneshwar Kumar (SRH)
Bhuvneshwar has been one of the most consistent pacers for India over the years. His precision in restricting the batters has always been lauded by the experts of the game. This season has not been the best one for him so far in terms of wickets he bagged.
However, Bhuvi has once again bowled economically in the powerplay overs which tends to put pressure on batters. In the match against CSK this week, he went wicketless but still maintained an economy of 5.5, bowling eight dots in his spell of four overs. He only gave 22 runs on a pitch where the batting side posted 202.
Another game was against Delhi Capitals this week where the pacer bagged one wicket out of the three that had fallen. Kumar trapped DC opener, Mandeep Singh, with his very tight bowling. Bhuvi gave only 25 runs in his spell of four overs, bowling 14 dot balls where the batting side totaled 207.
