Just like in the case of Avesh Khan, 2021 was a breakthrough year for Harshal Patel as well. He has been a part of the IPL circuit since 2012, but apart from the 2015 season, he was unable to make his presence felt. Since 2015, his economy has been on the higher side but he had the knack of picking wickets when his team needed him to. For Virat Kohli, Patel was his chosen death bowler. 

During the first match of the season, Patel took five wickets against the defending champions Mumbai Indians. After achieving the remarkable landmark, he became the first bowler to pick five wickets against Mumbai. Later on, wherever Kohli asked him to bowl the middle and death overs, he delivered, except one game where he was hammered for 37 runs by Jadeja.

It looks like RCB’s bowling woes have been addressed. Patel can bowl yorkers at will. His slower balls are also difficult to read for any batsman. A bowler like him could be a valuable asset for any team. Talking about team India, it will sharpen their bowling lineup.
