Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Indian cricketer
Bhuvneshwar Kumar Singh (born 5 February 1990) is an Indian international cricketer who plays for Uttar Pradesh in domestic first-class cricket and for Sunrisers Hyderabad in the Indian Premier League.

Considered as one of the best white-ball bowlers in the world, Kumar swings the ball both ways efficiently, with his inswingers more effective than outswing.He made his international debut in December 2012 against Pakistan in December 2012, taking three wickets in an Twenty20 International. He went on to make his One Day International (ODI) debut in the series which followed. He is the first Indian bowler to take a five-wicket haul in Test cricket, ODIs and T20Is.
