Billy Stanlake is one of the most sought-after and under-estimated T20I bowlers in the world. However, he has found less game time as his career has been riddled with injuries. He is also known for taking wickets in batsmen-friendly pitches. The Australian pacer also has a good mix of variations which can stifle the batsmen.

His performances at the international level have been stupendous as he has taken 25 wickets from 17 games at an economy of 8.09 in T20I's.

Moreover, he has taken six wickets to his name from as many matches in ODIs. But, he has been overshadowed by fellow Australian pacer Andrew Tye and he undoubtedly deserves more fame.

Khaleel Ahmed, the 21-year-old left arm pacer has proved to be a revelation for the Indian team as he has made a mark with his bowling exploits. Khaleel Ahmed has stifled the batsman with his deadly bouncers. He can also bowl above 130 km/h speed regularly.

He has played six ODI's so far and has scalped 11 wickets at a magnificent economy rate of 5.07.
