Bhuvneshwar one of the best fast bowlers in IPL history, says Muralitharan 

SRI LANKA GREAT Muttiah Muralitharan has heaped praise on Sunrisers Hyderabad paceman Bhuvneshwar Kumar for his ability to restrict batsmen in the death overs. 

Having picked 16 wickets in seven games, Bhuvi is currently the purple cap holder of IPL 10. As reported by PTI, Muralitharan termed the SRH seamer as one of the best fast bowlers to have bowled in the history of IPL. 

“Over the last four, five years that I have been seeing him, he is the best bowler in IPL history. He bowls two overs in the Power Play and two at the death and his economy rate is so low. Unfortunately, he has not played much T20 cricket for India. He will be a very big prospect for India as well, in these conditions or in any conditions. Hopefully, people will realise that. He is one of the most successful bowlers in IPL history as a fast bowler."

Speaking about Afghanistan bowlers, Muralitharan said they are brilliant and will take IPL experience into international games.

"The spinners from Afghanistan including Rashid have done brilliantly. They have delivered more than what we expected."
