Sportskeeda Cricket Awards 2016: T20 Bowler of the Year

#2 Ravichandran Ashwin

Ashwin has bagged 52 wickets in his T20 career so far

You seldom come across a spinner who is consistent in all three formats of the game. Well, Ravichandran Ashwin is one of those rare talents and has therefore pocketed 24 per cent of the votes.

The Chennai-born offspinner has matured with age and used the IPL as the perfect platform to enhance his skills. The 30-year-old is a miser when it comes to giving away runs in T20s and also picks up crucial wickets at crucial stages of a game.

He is a game-changer and India are heavily dependent on the tweaker these days because of it. From 45 matches he has picked up 52 wickets at an average of 22.19.

This year, he was very impressive in the World T20s and then continued to excel in matches after that. He has best bowling figures of 4/8.
