Getting the purple cap in the ongoing IPL has come as a huge morale-booster to Royal Challengers Bangalore pacer Vinay Kumar,who feels it has increased his hunger for wickets.
8220;I am really happy about whatever I have done so far and will make sure I will continue to do so. I also will try to give my best and get more wickets for the team,8221; he told reporters after the win over Rajasthan Royals here lats night.
Bowlers are giving a tough competition to each other in this year8217;s IPL where the Purple Cap is changing hands quickly.
Vinay snatched the cap from leg-spinner Amit Mishra after he picked up three wickets for 18 runs against Rajasthan Royals last night.
However,his celebrations could be short-lived because wily West Indian spinner Sunil Narine and Mishra are not far behind with 11 wickets compared to Vinay8217;s 12.
Vinay said Bangalore boasts of a good bowling attack and he was enjoying teaming up with with Ravi Rampaul,RP Singh and others.
Talking about the match against Rajasthan,Vinay said Chris Gayle once again gave Bangalore a clinical win.

On Bangalore not conceding extras in the match,Vinay said the bowlers worked hard in the nets to plug the no balls,especially after RP Singh8217;s no ball cost the team earlier.
