Top 10 Moments of the World T20 2016

9. Brilliant Spells: 

Mitchell Santner

Defending a modest total of 126 against hosts India, Santner struck twice in his first over to get rid of Rohit Sharma and Suresh Raina. On a turning track at Nagpur, Santner made the Indian batsmen dance to his tunes. He later came back to put the final nail into the coffin by getting Dhoni’s wicket. He finished the match with figures of 4 for 11 runs in his quota of 4 overs.

Mustafizur Rahman

Mustafizur Rahman put up a scintillating show against the Kiwis in their last game of the WT20 2016. Though, Bangladesh lost, Mustafizur’s five-wicket haul didn’t fail to swing more praise in his favour. He achieved career best figures of 5 for 22 runs. He bowled splendidly on the Eden Gardens surface and was quite effective with his cutters.

James Faulkner

James Faulkner also produced a special performance in the World T20 with the ball. Australia were up against Pakistan as the Asian giants were well on course of a superb victory being asked to chase 173 by the Aussies. It was Faulkner’s spell of 4-0-27-5 that changed the course of the game and made sure Australia win the game to keep their qualification hopes alive. These are not only his career best figures but also the best by an Australian in T20Is.
