One Indian bowler who reinvented himself in the Indian Premier Leauge is Bhuvneshwar Kumar. Bhuvi, who was considered to be a new ball bowler, transformed his game brilliantly and added variety to his bowling. Since his time in Sunrisers Hyderabad, the Indian pacer has worked hard on his death bowling and added yorkers and knuckle-ball to his repertoire.

He also used these variations while playing for Team India and has been an integral part of the Indian limited-overss sides for the past couple of years.

Unfortunately, he struggled with a back injury last season and wasn't at his best. But the right-arm seamer seems to have gained full fitness and is rearing to go in IPL 2019. Bhuvneshwar Kumar had previously won the Purple cap consecutively in 2016 and 2017 and will surely be in the running to win it for a record third time.
