What happened

At 36, Bhuvneshwar Kumar is back in India’s T20I setup, four years after his last international appearance. His recall followed a 28-wicket IPL season for RCB and a strong UP T20 campaign, but the numbers tell only part of the story. His strength and conditioning coach reveals how Bhuvneshwar cut his body fat from 19% to 14%, spent up to seven hours a day training and rebuilt his fitness to force his way back.
