#2 Fastest bowler to 50 wickets: Yuzvendra Chahal
In Twenty20 format, batsmen have become more attacking making the wrist spinners more effective. Yuzvendra Chahal along with Kuldeep Yadav, form a formidable duo and have been playing a crucial role for India in the middle overs.
Yuzvendra Chahal currently ranked No.3 in T20Is is all set to become the fastest bowler to reach claim 50 T20I wickets. Currently, the record is jointly held by the No.1 bowler in T20Is, Rashid Khan, and Imran Tahir, who achieved the feat in 31 matches.
Chahal, at present, has 41 wickets to his name from just 23 matches and will be going into the series with some confidence after winning the man of the series award in T20Is against Ireland.
To break the record, Chahal has to take 9 wickets in 7 matches, but with the kind of form that he is in, he might break the record in the series against England.
