Kumar missed the season opener against the Kolkata Knight Riders, still not about his availability for the CSK match, which is set to play in the Chepauk stadium on March 28. RCB and Indian cricket fans have high hopes for the 'swing master,' who previously got back-to-back purple caps as the leading wicket-taker. The right-arm fast bowler has shown his brilliance in the recent domestic cricket as well. Now the questions arise, will Bhuvneshwar Kumar play against Chennai Super Kings, and when will he be fit to play the IPL 2025?

Previously it was reported that he has a little niggle; for that reason, RCB management decided not to play him in Eden Gardens, Kolkata. RCB faced KKR on March 22, Saturday. After that, there is no strong evidence or report about Kumar's fitness. Though a social media post by the official RCB account stated that, "Bhuvi will be swinging back into action sooner and bolder than ever!" But when? That's the question without a proper answer.

There are some speculations suggesting that Kumar is yet to recover his fitness at a higher level, and for this, he can spend more time outside the playing XI. It seems that Kumar may miss the CSK match as well, like he was out from the Kolkata Knight Riders match. If Bhuvneshwar is not ready to play the upcoming match against CSK, then Rashid Dar Salaam might get another match to showcase his talent.
