UP T20 League 2024: The second season of UP T20 League started on 25 August. So far in this season, teams have played more than 7 matches. This time many star players of Team India are also participating in the league. This time all eyes were on Bhuvneshwar Kumar in the league. However, till now he has not been able to perform as per his name. In such a situation, now questions are also being raised about his claim in IPL.

Struggling Bhuvneshwar

Bhuvneshwar Kumar's performance has not been anything special this season. He has taken only 5 wickets in 8 matches. During this time his average has been 37.80. Apart from this, his strike rate has been 32.40. He is not even in the top 20 list of bowlers taking the most wickets in the season. Bhuvi's increasing age and form have become a concern for him. Bhuvi's balls no longer have the same swing and speed as before.

No Special Performance In IPL

If we talk about IPL 2024, then Bhuvneshwar Kumar's performance in this was also not very special. He took 13 wickets in 16 matches. During this, his strike rate was 79.31. Even this season, Bhuvi could not make much of an impact on the match.

May remain unsold in IPL

The mega auction of IPL is to be held at the end of this year. There is very little hope that Hyderabad will retain him. Bhuvi is now 35 years old and considering his form, Hyderabad would not want to bet on him. Apart from this, teams would also like to give a chance to young bowlers. In such a situation, if Bhuvneshwar Kumar does not perform well in the upcoming matches, then he may also remain unsold in the IPL.
