That all-around effort in Johannesburg had given India victory on an extremely tough pitch to end the series on a high. With seven wickets in the three subsequent T20Is, Bhuvneshwar was on a high, among the Indian bowlers to watch out for when the team travelled to England later in the year. The T20Is and ODIs preceded the Tests in England, and Bhuvneshwar's tour ended right there. While playing the third ODI in Leeds, he aggravated an old lower-back injury, an issue that had been troubling him since the IPL earlier in the year. Even before the IPL, Bhuvneshwar sat out of the Nidahas Trophy and later the one-off Test against Afghanistan at home to manage the injury. As a result, he flew back to India while the England Test series was on to undergo intense rehabilitation at the National Cricket Academy in Bengaluru and was out of action for two months before returning for the Asia Cup Live Streaming Cricket Match.

A return to England brought with it another niggle for Bhuvneshwar. While playing the high-profile match against Pakistan, he bowled only 2.4 overs before leaving the field with a hamstring injury to be ruled out of the next few games of the tournament. India captain Virat Kohli had said that Bhuvneshwar was "going to be a significant factor for us" and the swing bowler lived up to the reputation with three wickets in the semi-final against New Zealand. But the batsmen's failure meant India's tournament ended there Live Streaming Cricket Match.
