Sunrisers Hyderabad pace Bhuvneshwar Kumar has been ruled out of the IPL due to hip injury that he sustained during the match against Chennai Super Kings.
Speaking to ANI, sources in the team confirmed that the pacer will have to skip the tournament due to the injury.
“Bhuvi will not be able to take further part in this year’s tournament as he has been ruled out with a hip injury. A big blow for sure as he is someone who leads the bowling unit and is also an integral part of the leadership group on the ground,” the source said.
Bhuvneshwar suffered the injury and walked off the field in the 19th over. He did try to bowl and had to stop in his stride twice before the physio decided that he needed to walk off and would take further part in the game.
At the toss in the next game against Mumbai Indians on Sunday, Warner had said that it looked like the pacer would miss a couple of games.
