Wanindu Hasaranga
The wrist-spinner was the highest wicket-taker in the last edition of the world cup. He scalped 16 wickets in the tournament which is also the highest number of wickets taken by a bowler in a single edition of the 20-20 World Cup.
He will be once again raring to go in the tournament as Sri Lanka have qualified for the Super 12 stage. Having won the Asia Cup last month, the Lankan lions now have their eyes set on winning their second 20-20 World Cup. Hasaranga will prove to be Sri Lanka’s X factor in the tournament as they look to emulate their Asia Cup heroics.
