Before coming to the T20 World Cup 2024, Indian bowlers would not have even imagined taking 25 wickets in just three matches. But the group stage in the United States was something like this. Even the bowlers who had the most question marks on them got success.

Now, the tournament is going to be extremely competitive. The flatter conditions in West Indies for the Super-8 will probably test Mohammad Siraj and the rest of the Indian players. Arshdeep Singh could not perform well on similar pitches. At the same time, looking at the pitch, there may be a question mark on who should be selected, Kuldeep Yadav or Ravindra Jadeja.

However, it is not that Indian bowlers have not been successful on this pitch. In this article, we will name 3 bowlers who have taken the most wickets for India in T20 format in West Indies. 2 of these are in the current squad of Team India.

3. Hardik Pandya

Hardik Pandya comes third in this list. He has taken 6 wickets at an average of 22.16 and an economy rate of 6.33 during the 2022 and 2023 tours. His best bowling spell has been 3/35.

2. Arshdeep Singh

Arshdeep Singh’s return to form against the US team in the group stage matches is a very positive sign for Team India. Like Hardik Pandya, Arshdeep Singh’s slower and swinging ball helps him a lot on Caribbean pitches.

He is the second highest wicket taker from India in this list. He has taken 7 wickets in 6 matches at an average of 25.85. His best spell on these West Indies pitches is 2/24.

1. Ashish Nehra

Ashish Nehra has taken 10 wickets in 5 T20 matches on West Indies pitches at an average of 15.60 and an economy rate of 7.80. The interesting thing is that he played 5 matches during the 2010 T20 World Cup and was the best bowler in that edition. Ashish Nehra has taken 3 wicket hauls twice in the tournament.
