5 highest wicket takers in T20 Internationals in 2017
No one wants to be a bowler in today's world. The game has tilted heavily towards the batsmen with the advent of bigger bats, smaller grounds and flat tracks.The bowlers have to be consistently on their toes to have any chance of returning respectable figures in any match.
With the advent of T20s the bowlers have had to face an even harder time with the batsmen consistently looking to hit the big shots. However, the best bowlers always find a way out in difficult circumstances. They always have some tricks up their sleeve to bamboozle the batsmen. So who are the best bowlers in T20s this year? Let us have a look.
Here is the list of top 5 wicket takers in T20s this year:
#5 Imran Tahir
A late bloomer, this wily leg-spinner from South Africa has made rapid strides since making his debut in the 2011 World Cup. Tahir is mightily effective in the limited overs format with his range of variations while his celebrations after picking up a wicket are a treat to watch for all cricket fans.
Tahir had a wonderful year in T20s this year, picking up 14 wickets in the 9 matches he has played this year. He has also picked up a five-for on the way- a stellar performance considering a bowler only has 4 overs at his disposal.
He would be looking to continue his wonderful performance in 2018 as well.
