‘Hard work has paid off’: Suresh Raina on Bhuvneshwar Kumar’s India comeback

Former India batter Suresh Raina lauded the hard work of veteran pacer Bhuvneshwar Kumar, who has recently returned to the Indian team after an extended absence. Raina praised Kumar's discipline, process-oriented mindset, and dedication to his body. The 36-year-old has made a significant impact in the domestic circuit, particularly with Royal Challengers Bengaluru in the IPL, where he has been instrumental in their back-to-back titles.

This resurgence has been crucial for India's bowling, especially in the absence of Jasprit Bumrah. Kumar's return was confirmed during a recent selection meeting in Guwahati, where he was included in the T20I and India A squads. Raina expressed his best wishes for Kumar's upcoming tour of New Zealand, where his experience and skill are expected to bolster India's white-ball bowling lineup.
