6 modern day wrist spinners who turn googlies more than leg-breaks

India v New Zealand - 2011 ICC World Cup Warm Up Game
Piyush Chawla's career hasn't lived up to its potential

#6 Ish Sodhi

New Zealand v South Africa - 2nd ODI
Sodhi gets steep bounce which makes it even more difficult for the batsmen

Ish Sodhi, the New Zealand international, also gets a vast majority of his wickets through the googly. What makes him a force to reckon with is the drift that he gets in the air. That, along with the turn that his deliveries generate from the surface is a deadly combination for any batsman to deal with.

He is tall and gets steep bounce which makes it even more difficult for the batsmen to judge the lines and lengths of his deliveries. Sodhi is best known for his spell against India in ICC World T20 2016 at Dharamsala where he put on an exhibition and bamboozled the Indians with his leg-breaks and googlies.
