T20 World Cup 2022: Ten players who will be playing the tournament for the first time
There are a number of players who will be playing in their inaugural T20 World Cup next month in Australia and some of these players are capable of taking the event by storm.
3. Harshal Patel
Ever since Harshal Patel made his debut for India, he has been absolutely sensational. The move from Delhi Capitals to Royal Challengers Bangalore worked wonders for the pacer as he also won the purple cap in the 14th edition of the IPL.
The 31-year-old is a late bloomer but the Indian team will not mind that as long as he produces the desired result. Despite being the leading wicket-taker in the 14th edition of the IPL, he wasn’t selected in India's T20 World Cup squad 2021. Thus, this is for the first time, he will play in a major tournament for India.
Patel has 23 wickets to his name in 17 T20I matches. His economy of 8.58 seems pretty high but considering that he bowls at the death, that can be understandable. He will have a huge role to play in his very first major tournament as India eye their second-ever T20 World Cup.
