As far as the ongoing T20 World Cup 2022 is concerned, Bhuvneshwar has not been amongst the wickets consistently as he picked up four wickets from five matches. But his knack to halt the flow of runs on a consistent basis has helped the Indian cricket team at the marquee event.

Overall, Sunil Narine has bowled most maidens in all T20s with 27 to his name. Shakib Al Hasan has 23 to his name with Samuel Badree third on the list with 21. Bhuvneshwar is joint third with 21 to his name, the most by an Indian. Bumrah meanwhile has 19 to his name and is sixth on the list.
