Best Bowling Figures in T20 World Cup
The month of fantastic cricket has just begun in a few days. Fans are looking excited for the T20 World Cup. Every sportsperson tries to make some record that remains in fans’ minds for many years. Some legends did it, and youngsters tried to do it in the future. The record of dismissing more batsmen and conceding few runs is also an achievement named as the best bowling figure in the T20 World Cup.
Sri Lankan former mystery spinner Ajantha Mendis is an unplayable bowler in the T20 Cup. Mendis’ ability forced many players to dance on the pitch. Mendis in the 2012 World Cup against Zimbabwe dismissed 6 batsmans in 4 overs. He just gave 8 runs with an economy of 2.
