Southee has a great record in T20s as he has picked up 172 wickets in 153 T20s at an average of 26 at a strike rate of 19. He is amongst the fiercest fast bowlers in the world and is a quality death bowler.

Southee has been unable to make it into the Playing X1 as Chris Woakes has been preferred over him due to his ability to play the power game with the bat. Southee can be a great death bowler for the Bangalore side as the team has been leaking too many runs in end overs.
