5 bowlers with most maidens in T20s

#3 Praveen Kumar – 19 Maidens

The vehement bowler from Uttar Pradesh is the only Indian on the list. Praveen Kumar always made the batsmen dance to his tunes with his deceptive pace and lethal swing. Perhaps it is this flair of his, which earned him a national contract on Nov 18, 2007, against Pakistan. Kumar swings the ball with a dodgy pace and makes it tough for the batsmen to judge him. The Australian batsmen literally had no clue against him in the CB series in Australia in 2008 as most of the time his ball swooped up with a spike.

Kumar has a decent IPL record, he had taken a hat-trick against the Rajasthan Royals in the 2010 season. He was bought for the whopping US $ 800,000 by the Kings XI Punjab in the 2011 auction when he was at his peak. However, his off-field issues and belligerent attitude forced him out of the Indian team. Kumar still plays for Uttar Pradesh in the domestic circuit. He is the third on the list with 19 maiden overs.
