Bhuvneshwar Kumar became the first Indian bowler ever to take a five-wicket haul each across all the formats of international cricket. He also became only the second Indian bowler to take a 5 wicket haul in the shortest format of the game after spinner Yuzvendra Chahal.

Bhuvneshwar was not really among wickets in the ODI series but finally, he joined the party and when he gets going there is no one better than him.
