One of the rarest sights in International Cricket today is the left arm wrist spinner, and there is no one better at it than Kuldeep Yadav.

Yadav took advantage of spin-friendly pitches and went to work. He picked up 10 wickets in his 6 matches, using his deceptive googly expertly. Yadav made his mark with three crucial wickets in the tournament final to help reduce Bangladesh to a below-par total.

His best ball may have come against rivals Pakistan. He set up Babar Azam perfectly, with to balls turning into him, with the wicket coming thanks to a beautiful googly that bowled him through the gate.
