In the second season of the UPT20 League, Lucknow Falcons have included India’s experienced fast bowler Bhuvneshwar Kumar in their team. Let us tell you, in the first season of this important tournament, Bhuvneshwar Kumar was seen playing for Noida Super Kings.
Bhuvneshwar Kumar took 14 wickets in 9 matches in the first season and was the fourth highest wicket taker in the tournament. Noida Super Kings finished second in the points table but the team lost to Kashi Rudraksh in the first semi-final. There was a long bidding war between Kanpur Superstars and Gorakhpur Lions for Bhuvneshwar Kumar. However, Gorakhpur did not have enough money to complete its team and due to this they had to drop out of this round.
However, after this Lucknow Falcons joined the race and included Bhuvneshwar Kumar in their team for Rs 30.25 lakh. Noida Super Kings had the option of Right to Match card but they refused to use it. Lucknow Falcons will also be very happy that they have included Bhuvneshwar Kumar in their team.
