Arshdeep Singh has already become one of India’s most successful bowlers in T20 World Cup history. So far he has taken 29 wickets in 15 matches. If he can take just four wickets against Namibia, Arshdeep will overtake Ashwin to become India’s highest T20 World Cup wicket-taker. Ashwin took 32 wickets in 24 matches in this tournament.

In 2022, Arshdeep got a chance in T20 World Cup for the first time. Then he was an important member of India’s World Cup winning team in 2024. Arshdeep is looking more mature and confident in his third World Cup this time, which is evident in his consistent performances.

Interestingly, while there are Indian stars in the top-5 list of batsmen in the history of T20 World Cup, there is no Indian in the top-5 of bowlers till now. Therefore, Arshdeep not only has the chance to break the country’s record, but at the same time, there is also the possibility of rising higher in the list of the best bowlers of the World Cup.

Arshdeep is currently second only to Ashwin in the list of bowlers who have taken the most wickets in T20 World Cup for India. He is followed by experienced cricketers like Jasprit Bumrah, Hardik Pandya and Ravindra Jadeja. Topping this list could be one of the biggest achievements of Arshdeep’s career.

Bangladesh’s Shakib Al Hasan tops the list of overall bowlers in the World Cup with 50 wickets. He is followed by stars like Wanindu Hasaranga, Shahid Afridi, Rashid Khan and Lasith Malinga. Cricket lovers are now looking at Arshdeep’s performance in the match against Namibia.
