Top 5 Bowling Performances in the Men’s T20 World Cup

Mitchell Santner, 4-0-11-4 v India, Nagpur

Mitchell Santner

He was the surprise package of the T20 World Cup. India were supposed to chase down a paltry target of 126 set by New Zealand with ease in the opening game. However that was not to be as Santner picked the wickets of Rohit Sharma, Suresh Raina, MS Dhoni and Hardik Pandya to make sure the Indian batting order crumbled against spin on a turning track.

Santner’s slow left arm spin troubled batsmen right through the tournament, but this game was his best as he troubled the famed Indian batting known for its reasonably good skills against high quality spin. He was well supported by Ish Sodhi, who picked up three wickets himself.
