The Super-8 match of the T20 World Cup between India and South Africa was held in Ahmedabad, showcasing a historic performance by India’s star bowler Jasprit Bumrah. Bumrah now tops the list of bowlers with the most wickets for India in the T20 World Cup.
On Sunday, against South Africa, Bumrah bowled brilliantly, conceding only 15 runs in 4 overs and taking 3 wickets, surpassing Arshdeep Singh and Ashwin, who each have 32 wickets in the T20 World Cup so far.
Surpassing Arshdeep and Ashwin
Trailing Bumrah are two bowlers, Arshdeep Singh and Ravichandran Ashwin, each with 32 wickets. Arshdeep's achievement in such a short time is notable, while Ashwin, with his experience and variety, consistently troubles batsmen.
In fourth place is Hardik Pandya, with 29 wickets. As an all-rounder, Hardik has provided crucial breakthroughs, easing pressure for the team.
