Played exceptionally well in the first 2 tests, but poor after that with bat and ball. Very poor on the first day at the Ageas Bowl. Once he lost his mojo, India were down and out. Not sure he will be celebrating this award too much.

Well deserved Man of the Series. :hatsoff: He was superb with both bat and ball in first two tests and he was primarily responsible for putting India in a good position. From 3rd test, perhaps he got tired and couldnt maintain the same intensity and it reflected in the team's performance as well.

Tired for last 3 tests??? Why? Broad and Anderson always had to bowl in 2 innings, while BK was only bowling in one as batsman did not get any runs. Yet Broad and Anderson never got tired and kept up high speeds and did the business Fitness issues for BK if that's the case that TIRED!! Needs to work harder to get stronger and with better stamina if that's the case that actually tired!

This is a bad sign he became a m/f bowler to a trundler in this series and it is a bad sign,instead of building on his IPL exploits he has lost pace and after two tests batters learnt how to counter him, Dhoni also to blame as he was bowled to death and mediocrity, this guy has the ability to bowl 133 to 140 in test and he could be lethal but he looks like another fatality

Look at the amount of overs India bowled and the amount of overs England bowled. Dhoni's captaincy while rotating bowlers also doesnt help the cause.

Bhuvneshwar Kumar has bowled 172.5 overs in this series. His pace has dropped. He has looked tired. Yet the accuracy hasn't left him. Over after over he has been nibbling away. He has been one of India's four best batsmen too. No matter how tired he has been, no matter how dispirited, he has fought hard for every single run because it is him who has had to defend them. He has made England earn his wicket almost every time. He has been India's spirit of this tour. He has been their conscience. He was named India's Man of the Series by England coach Peter Moores. India should have got a picture of Bhuvneshwar and stuck it up in the dressing room. When they didn't feel like putting up a fight - and how much can you blame them given their techniques and the state of mind they were in? - they should have looked at Bhuvneshwar's picture and reminded themselves they have to fight for him. He is human, too. He can be forgiven a stray thought, "Who am I doing this for?" He can be forgiven the stray wild drive that signals the leaving of the last bit of spirit.
