    IPL 2025: Death Bowling Is Like An Instinct, Says Bhuvneshwar Kumar

    By IANS News May 07, 2025 • 16:40 PM View: 704
    Royal Challengers Bengaluru: Royal Challengers Bengaluru bowler Bhuvneshwar Kumar labelled death bowling as instinctive and tactical, stressing the importance of staying a step ahead of the batter in crunch moments of an IPL game.

    "Death bowling is like an instinct. It depends on what is the situation of the match and what you are thinking as well," Bhuvneshwar said in a video shared by RCB. "Sometimes there is a very normal situation going on, but you have an instinct that the batter is going to do something different. So that's when we call it being proactive—to be a step ahead of the batter.”

    The veteran seamer, back in RCB colours after 16 years, has been central to the team’s remarkable bowling turnaround this season. While Bengaluru’s campaign has seen ups and downs, their bowling—especially in the death overs—has been a consistent positive. RCB currently boast the second-best economy rate at the death in IPL 2025, conceding just 10.23 runs per over in overs 17 to 20, marginally behind Mumbai Indians’ 10.22.
