IPL : Bhuvneshwar Kumar Shares ‘Cherished Memories’, Pens Emotional Farewell Note For SRH

November 28, 2024: Bhuvneshwar Kumar’s move from Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) to Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) marks a significant change in his IPL career.

His heartfelt farewell to SRH shows just how much the team and fans meant to him. The pacer spent 11 memorable years with SRH, and in his emotional message, he reflected on the incredible journey that included triumphs like winning the IPL title and securing the Purple Cap twice.

Having played 176 IPL matches and taking 181 wickets over his career, Bhuvneshwar has been one of the most consistent and reliable pacers in the league. Even though his performance in the 2024 season was modest with 11 wickets from 16 matches, his value as a senior pro with vast experience cannot be overstated. His new association with RCB, for a significant sum of Rs 10.75 crore, signals a new chapter in his career, and it’s clear he still holds a lot of appeal in the IPL, both as a bowler and a leader in the dressing room.

The bidding war between franchises, with Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) pushing the price to Rs 10 crore, before RCB secured him, is a testament to Bhuvneshwar’s enduring quality and reputation. His move to RCB is a fresh opportunity, and fans will surely be hoping that his vast experience and leadership will add valuable depth to the Bangalore franchise.

As for his time with SRH, his departure will leave a void, as he’s been a cornerstone for the team for over a decade. His gratitude towards the “Orange Army” and the bond he shares with the fans speaks volumes about the respect and love he has for the franchise. His time at SRH was indeed special, with many unforgettable moments. Fans of both SRH and RCB will be looking forward to seeing how Bhuvneshwar contributes in the next IPL season.
