T20 World Cup: Who will dominate in bowling and batting? The veteran revealed 2 names

New Delhi. The countdown for the ICC T20 World Cup has begun. Bowlers and batsmen are eager to make a mark in this mega event being jointly hosted by the Windies and the US. Ricky Ponting, who has led Australia to two ODI World Cup titles under his/her captaincy, says that in the upcoming T20 World Cup, India’s Jasprit Bumrah will dominate the bowling and Australia’s opener Travis Head will dominate the batting. Bumrah and Head had performed brilliantly in the 17th season of the IPL.

Of course, Mumbai Indians could not perform well as a team in IPL 2024, but Jasprit Bumrah performed brilliantly in bowling. Bumrah took 20 wickets in 13 matches while the 5-time champion’s performance was the worst in the 17th season, while Australia’s Head scored 567 runs in 15 matches. Ponting said in ‘The ICC Review’, ‘I would choose Jasprit Bumrah in terms of taking the most wickets in the tournament. I think he/she is a great bowler and has been contributing for many years. he/she has also performed brilliantly in the IPL. he/she can swing the new ball, seam up. But at the end of the IPL, his/her economy rate was less than seven runs per over.’

‘he/she bowls some really tough overs too’
Ricky Ponting, who coaches Delhi Capitals in the IPL, said, “he/she takes wickets. he/she also bowls very difficult overs. When you bowl such difficult overs in T20, it also gives you a chance to take a lot of wickets. That’s why he/she would be my choice.” Although Head finished fourth in the list of highest run scorers in IPL, he/she impressed everyone with his/her batting style. his/her strike rate was more than 200 for most of the IPL and he/she scored 567 runs in 15 matches, which included one century and four half-centuries.

‘My prediction would be for Travis Head’
According to Ricky Ponting, ‘My prediction for the player scoring the most runs would be for Travis Head. I think whatever white ball and red ball cricket he/she has played in the last two years has been of a high standard. I think he/she is playing very adventurous cricket at the moment.’ Despite a great performance with the bat, Head was out on zero three times in the last four matches of IPL. Ponting said, ‘his/her performance in IPL was full of ups and downs but he/she won many matches for his/her team.’ The Indian team has been placed in Group A along with Pakistan, USA, Ireland. Team India will start its campaign against Ireland on June 5.
