Harshal Patel had a terrific IPL 2021 where he scalped 32 wickets in 15 matches and won the Purple cap as well. Known for his deceptive slower balls, Harshal can be a good addition to Indian squad for T20 WC.

He has played a total of 63 IPL matches picking a total of 78 wickets. The 31-year old bowler has an average of 23.18 in the tournament. Talking about his international career, Harshal has represented India in eight matches in which he has scalped a total of 11 wickets. However, his economy is on a little higher side with 8.52 which is fair given he bowls during the toughest phase of the game.

Apart from Bumrah, the men in blue have some troubles in finalizing their death overs bowlers for the tournament. Harshal, if given some more opportunities at the top level, might be India’s answer to their issues. Apart from having a deceptive slower ball, the right-handed pacer can surprise the batters with his effective bouncer as well.
