Harshal left the bio-bubble in between, and it is mandatory to serve the quarantine period before entering the bubble again. Patel is having an incredible IPL 2022, where he has scalped six wickets in four games at a stellar economy of 5.50.
Harshal Patel has been a sensational performer for Royal Challengers Bangalore. RCB used Harshal Patel to his very best, the seamer from Haryana took 32 wickets in the 2021 season breaking all the records.
Harshal kept his base price at INR 2 crores in the IPL 2022 auction. RCB broke their bank and spent INR 10.75 crores to bring back Harshal in their side.
