Sarmad Anwar, representing Pakistan domestic team Sialkot Stallions, conceded 81 runs in 4 overs against Lahore Lions in 2011, and it still stands as the most expensive figures ever by a bowler in the shortest format.
There are as many as 6 Indians in the list, with the likes of Sreenath Aravind, Balachandra Akhil, Ishant Sharma, Sandeep Sharma, Pagala Naidu and Umesh Yadav all having conceded 65 or more runs at some point of time in their career. Former England swing bowler Matthew Hoggard is the only other notable name in the list.
