Sehwag urges BCCI to recall Bhuvneshwar Kumar after T20 milestone

Virender Sehwag has urged BCCI selectors to bring back Bhuvneshwar Kumar to the international setup, praising the pacer for reclaiming the Purple Cap and reaching a historic 350 T20 wicket milestone.

Sehwag hailed Bhuvneshwar as "Vintage Bhuvi" following his 3/28 spell against the Gujarat Titans, where he dismissed key batters like Shubman Gill and Jos Buttler. The veteran pacer reached 350 T20 wickets, becoming the first Indian fast bowler to achieve the feat, and currently leads the IPL Purple Cap race with 17 scalps in nine matches. cat-cross.com

Sehwag questioned age as a barrier, asking, "If he is 35-36 years old, so what?" and suggested the pair of Bumrah and Bhuvneshwar could be recreated to bolster India's bowling attack.
