T20 World Cup 2024: New records are made every year in the T20 World Cup. Something similar is happening this time as well. This is the ninth season of the Cricket World Cup of this format. Meanwhile, a record can be made which has never happened before. In this, the record of Sri Lankan star bowler Wanindu Hasaranga can also be seen breaking. This record can be seen being broken by none other than Afghanistan’s Fazalhaq Farooqi, he is now waiting for his next match.
Most wickets in a single season of T20 World Cup
In fact, if we talk about the history of T20 World Cup, so far it has happened only once when a bowler has taken 16 wickets in a single season. In the 2021 T20 World Cup, Sri Lanka’s Wanindu Hasaranga managed to take 16 wickets. Earlier in the 2012 season, Sri Lanka’s Ajantha Mendis took 15 wickets in a season of T20 World Cup. Wanindu Hasaranga took 15 wickets in the year 2022. Now Fazalhaq Farooqui has completed his 15 wickets. That is, he needs only two more wickets from here to surpass Wanindu Hasaranga.
Fazalhaq Farooqui bowled brilliantly
The Afghanistan team has reached the Super 8 of the T20 World Cup by defeating the rest of the teams, where it had to face defeat from Team India in the very first match. The Afghanistan team may have lost, but the team’s fast bowler Fazalhaq Farooqui did his job well. He gave only 33 runs in four overs and dismissed three players. This is the reason why he has now come close to Hasranga’s record. The special thing is that if everything goes well, the Afghanistan team will play at least two more matches, in which Farooqui is sure to play. That is, he will have two chances to break Hasranga’s record.
These players of India were out
Fazalhaq Farooqi troubled the Indian team’s batsmen a lot with his bowling. First of all, he sent Indian captain Rohit Sharma to the pavilion on a score of just 8 runs. After this, he created a sensation by dismissing Suryakumar Yadav who had completed his half-century. Ravindra Jadeja was also dismissed by Fazalhaq Farooqi on 7 runs. Now it remains to be seen how Fazalhaq Farooqi performs in the next matches and how far his wicket-taking streak goes.
