- Kuldeep Yadav (India)
With every passing tournament, this young chinaman bowler appears to be growing in confidence. The slow and low pitches of Dubai—where India played all their matches—were tailor-made to suit Kuldeep’s variety and guile, and he made most of the conditions on offer by picking up ten scalps in six matches at 23.7 runs per wicket. It was his parsimonious bowling in the middle overs against Bangladesh in the final that slowed down the run-rate of the Bangldeshi innings and brought India back into the contest.
