This bowler can destroy the most in-form batting order as we have already seen a few trailers in IPL 2022. Although the real picture will be seen in the T20 World Cup. This bowler can prove to be a valuable asset for team India.
Royal Challengers Bangalore fast bowler Harshal Patel has proved to be a very stingy bowler in the IPL match against Rajasthan Royals on Tuesday. He took 1 wicket for 18 runs in 4 overs in the match against Rajasthan Royals. There are very few fast bowlers who bowl so tightly in the T20 format.
A fast bowler like him can also win the T20 World Cup title for Team India. Harshal Patel has also played 8 T20 International matches for Team India, in which he has taken 11 wickets. In international matches, 3 wickets for 22 runs has been the best bowling figure.
For the T20 World Cup to be held in October-November on Australian soil this year, Harshal Patel’s place in team India seems almost certain.
