Top 5 bowlers of the ICC Champions Trophy 2013

2. Ravindra Jadeja: 10 wickets @ Econ. 3.51

The only spinner on this list and an unlikely one. Most people saw Ravindra Jadeja when he came to this tournament as a part-time bowler but his wicket taking abilities have eclipsed R. Ashwin. That is not to say he is more skilled. Certainly not. He relies a lot on the natural variation that he derives off the pitch and maintains an impeccable line and length. He took a five-for against the West Indies and has chipped in with wickets in every match. His economy rate is an indication of the role he plays for MS Dhoni in the middle overs. His spell played a significant role for India in the fixture against South Africa.
