T20 World Cup 2021: Brad Hogg Selects One Indian Player In His Team Of The Tournament

Australia defeated New Zealand by 8 wickets on Sunday at the Dubai International Stadium and won their maiden T20 World Cup title. Aaron Finch & Co. proved their critic and cricket experts wrong who wrote them off as favourites to win the T20 World Cup. India and England who were the top favourites couldn’t perform up to the expectation and were knocked out before the T20 World Cup before the final.

Now, Brad Hogg on his YouTube channel has named one Indian player who can fit into his team of the tournament. It is pertinent to mention here that players from Team India have hardly featured in the list of top players in the tournament due to their early exit. While Rohit Sharma and KL Rahul were among the runs, they were far behind the other openers in terms of consistency. Brad Hogg managed to include one Indian in his team, and it was in the form of pacer Jasprit Bumrah.

“Finally found an Indian that could fit in my team. Jasprit Bumrah, obviously a very good new-ball bowler, can bowl in the middle overs with spin at the other end, it is sometimes a nice combination to have in those middle overs. He is also one of the best death bowlers going around in World Cricket at the moment,” said Hogg.
