Bhuvneshwar Kumar Returns to India’s T20I Squad with 2027 World Cup in Focus
Bhuvneshwar Kumar has been recalled to India's T20I squad after nearly four years, following strong performances in the IPL. The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) is considering him for the 2027 ODI World Cup, using the upcoming T20I series against New Zealand to assess his fitness and ability to handle the demands of 50-over cricket. Despite mixed past ODI performances, his experience and recent form make him a potential asset for India's bowling attack in the World Cup.
