The ICC Men’s T20 World Cup, co-hosted by West Indies and USA, ended with the final match on 29 June. The Indian team won the title for the second time overall by winning against South Africa by 7 runs in the final.

Every player of the team contributed in helping Team India win this title. So during this time, not only Team India but also some players from the remaining 20 teams were such from whom the team had high expectations of performance, but they could not perform. So today in this article we are going to give you information about the flop playing eleven of T20 World Cup 2024. So let’s start:

top order

Mitchell Marsh: The name of Australian captain Mitchell Marsh comes as an opening batsman in our flop eleven. He could not do anything special in the recently concluded T20 World Cup. Marsh was able to score only 125 runs at an average of 20.83 in the 7 matches he played in the tournament.

Reeza Hendricks: To support Mitchell Marsh, Reeza Hendricks is included in our flop XI as an opening batsman. Let us tell you that Hendricks scored only 113 runs in 9 matches played for South Africa at a meager average of 14.12. Also, in the final match against India, he was out after scoring just 4 runs.

Kusal Mendis (WK): When Kusal Mendis was selected in the Sri Lankan team for the T20 World Cup, there were a lot of expectations from him. But Mendis proved to be a big flop in the T20 World Cup and his team could not progress beyond the Super 8 stage. Mendis scored only 75 runs in 3 innings.

Middle Order

Kane WilliamsonBefore the start of the tournament, New Zealand captain Kane Williamson was expected to lead his team to the title, but not only the team but his performance was also disappointing. The team was eliminated in the league stage after losing the match against Afghanistan, and Williamson scored only 28 runs in the 3 matches played.

Jonny Bairstow: England’s aggressive wicketkeeper batsman Jonny Bairstow also could not do anything special in the T20 World Cup. Bairstow scored only 110 runs in the 6 matches he played.

Shadab Khan: Pakistani all-rounder Shadab Khan also could not do anything special in the T20 World Cup. He took 3 wickets in the 3 matches he played and scored only 44 runs with the bat.

Sam Curran: T20 World Cup 2022 Player of the Series Sam Curran has not been able to perform like that season in this season. In the five matches played for England in the T20 World Cup, Sam took only 3 wickets, while his performance with the bat was forgettable.

Bowler

Shaheen Afridi: Pakistan fast bowler Shaheen Afridi, known for his lethal bowling, did not show his swing magic in the T20 World Cup 2024. Shaheen took a total of 5 wickets in 4 matches for Pakistan at an average of 21.

Josh Hazlewood: Although Josh Hazlewood bowled well in the T20 World Cup, he is part of our flop playing XI due to his inability to take wickets. Josh Hazlewood took only 4 wickets for Australia in 6 matches.

Matheesha Pathirana: Mathisha Pathirana, who took 13 wickets for Chennai Super Kings in IPL 2024, did not have any magic in the T20 World Cup. Mathisha was able to take only 3 wickets in the three matches he played for Sri Lanka.

Mahesh Theekshana: This tournament has been unforgettable for Sri Lankan spinner Mahish Theekshana. Mahish was able to take only 1 wicket in the 3 matches he played, and that too he got against the Netherlands.

Finn praised him a lot and even said that he is the best player in the world. Speaking with former England captain Alastair Cook on TNT Sports, Steven Finn said, “Jaiswal scored a brilliant 161, but he is the player I like to watch. That is Jasprit Bumrah. I think he really is the best player in the world. Honestly, sometimes I think bowling like him is a joke! You see him bowling and you just think, I’m glad I don’t have to come out to bat.” He further said, “I was surprised that India went there (Australia) and defeated Australia, where usually it is very difficult to go and play cricket. Perth, I know it’s not the WACA; I know it’s a new stadium, but still, historically, Australia hasn’t lost many matches there. I thought India performed very bravely there.” Let us tell you that, Bumrah now has 118 wickets in 27 Test matches in SENA countries at an impressive average of 22.55, which also includes his career best performance (6/33).
