T20 World Cup: So far, Theekshana has picked up seven wickets in four games. His bowling average is 12.72. Sri Lanka’s spinners have been exceptional and hence, the fans of the island nation would be hoping that the spin-duo continue their good form.

Bas de Leede is currently placed second on the list of the highest wicket-takers of the T20 WC. The Dutch pacer has picked seven wickets in three games at an average of 9.71.

SL duo will receive a stiff challenge from Sam Curran, who was breathing fire during England’s game against Afghanistan. The all-rounder picked a sensational fifer, and only gave 10 runs in his 3.4 overs. This propelled England to a five-wicket win against the Mohammad Nabi-led side.

As for Sri Lanka, their first game of the Super 12 stage saw them beat Ireland by nine wickets. Hasaranga and Theekshana were superb as both of them picked two wickets each.

Alzarri Joseph is currently the fourth-highest wicket-taker of the T20 WC. He has picked up six wickets in three games at an average of 13.83. However, he will not get a chance to add to his tally as the West Indies were knocked out by Ireland during the qualifiers.
