T20 World Cup 2021: Best XI of the tournament
Australia defeated New Zealand in the final to lift their maiden T20 World Cup trophy.
11. Shaheen Shah Afridi
Shaheen Afridi, the tall, left-arm fast bowler, instilled fear in the hearts of all Indian supporters when he dismissed Rohit Sharma and KL Rahul on completely unplayable balls. He then went on to dismiss Virat Kohli at the death, bringing India’s innings to a halt with a par total.
For Pakistan, the tall fast bowler is an all-phase bowler. He can bowl in the powerplay and at the end of the game. He swings the ball at 140+kmph, making it extremely difficult for batters to counter. He is also one of the talented bowlers who can perform yorkers at will.
He has all the variations up his sleeve at the death. He can bowl slower cutters, fiery bouncers and boot-cracking yorkers at any point in the game, making him a lethal weapon against any opponent. With his best bowling figures of 3/31 against India, he took seven wickets at an economy rate of 7.04.
