By SRTeam In the last two seasons of the IPL, you must have seen Vijaykumar Vyshak play for the RCB, and he was doing pretty good too in whichever match he got a chance to play, like in his debut season, he ended up playing just 7 matches, but took 9 crucial wickets too. And looking at his performance in domestic cricket, this year, in IPL 2025, it is the Punjab Kings that went for him in the auctions with a price tag of INR 1.80 crores. Though so far, he has only played a single match for the new franchise. Anyway, if you’re seeing him bowl for the very first time for the Punjab Kings or in IPL in general, then let’s get to know him a little better, shall we?
