Most runs conceded by Indian bowler in men’s T20I
India has slowly progressed into a T20I powerhouse at the moment and the performances have been quite clinical in the last one year across various series. After the advent of the IPL, it has been easy for the selectors to choose the death bowlers. With all that said, here are the most expensive spells by Indian bowler in men’s T20I.
Deepak Chahar 0 for 56 against West Indies, 2019
Deepak Chahar has the best figures by an Indian bowler in T20Is however, he also has the third-worst figures by an Indian bowler in the format. The medium-0pacer was taken to the cleaners by the West Indian batters in the first T20I in Hyderabad in 2019, when he finished with 1 for 56 in his four overs. However, Virat Kohli’s unbeaten 94 sealed a victory for India with eight balls left.
Joginder Sharma 0 for 57 against England, 2007
Joginder Sharma’s final over heroics in the 2007 T20 World Cup is etched in the memories of cricket fans. Joginder picked up the crucial wicket of Misbah-ul-Haq to hand India a maiden World T20 title. However, in the game where, Yuvraj Singh hit six sixes in the over bowled by Stuart Broad, Joginder conceded 0 for 57 in his 4 overs at an economy rate of 14.25 and interestingly, it was the debut game for him as well.
Yuzvendra Chahal 0/64 against South Africa, 2018
Yuzvendra Chahal has been India’s talisman when it comes to the middle overs and has been phenomenal with his wicket0taking abilities in the T20I format. However, the leg-spinner, during his early days in international cricket, went for plenty in the second T20I against South Africa in Centurion in 2018. Conceding 16 an over, Chahal registered the worst figures by an Indian bowler in T2OIs with 0 for 64 in his 4 overs.
