Bishnoi Concedes Worst T20I Over by an Indian Spinner
Ravi Bishnoi leaked 29 runs in his final over against England, surpassing previous unwanted records for Indian bowlers.
India's Ravi Bishnoi endured a nightmare spell during the second T20I against England, conceding 29 runs in his final over to register the most expensive over by an Indian spinner in T20I history. The leg-spinner finished with figures of 0-60 from his four overs as England chased down India's 191-run target with ease.
Bishnoi's over came in the 17th over of England's innings, which included two no-balls and several big hits from Jacob Bethell. The expensive over reduced the required rate drastically, turning a 59-run requirement off four overs into just 20 off the final three. Arshdeep Singh also had a poor outing, leaking 27 runs in an over, placing both bowlers in the list of most expensive T20I overs by Indians.
The record was previously held by Shivam Dube (34 runs) and Stuart Binny (32 runs), but Bishnoi's effort is now the worst by an Indian spinner and the third most expensive overall in T20Is for India.
