Arguably India's best bowler in all three formats of the game, Bhuvneshwar Kumar is the winner of Purple Cap in the last two editions of the tournament, and only the second player after Dwayne Bravo to win it twice.

The 28-year-old has picked up 49 wickets in the previous two IPL tournaments for Sunrisers Hyderabad. With 111 wickets in 90 games, the Indian pacer is the sixth highest wicket-taker in the tournament's history.

Bhuvneshwar Kumar was retained by Sunrisers Hyderabad for a price of Rs 8.5 crore. He will be taking the new ball once again for Hyderabad and will look to make it a hat-trick of Purple Caps.
