5 most prolific T20I bowlers in 2017

#3 Rashid Khan - 17 wickets

Rashid Khan's prowess with the ball is next to none

Words cannot suffice to express the talent young leg-spinner Rashid Khan possesses. Capable of strangling the best of batsmen with his lethal variations, Rashid has emerged as one of the best spinners in the world and has given a whole new look to Afghanistan cricket as well.

Rashid started off 2017 with a bang, emerging as Afghanistan's highest wicket-taker with nine wickets from five games at a mind-boggling economy of just 3.61 in the Desert T20 challenge.

In his next assignment against Ireland, Rashid finished with nine wickets from three games, including a five-wicket haul that earned him the MOM award. Against West Indies, Rashid was played out cautiously by the Windies batsmen as he managed to pick only two wickets, albeit he finished with an economy of under 4 runs per over to culminate a good year for the youngster.
