Sandeep Sharma one of the most underrated bowlers in #IPL history.
Matches – 118
Wickets – 125
Econ – 7.86
S/R – 21.1
Today you can add 5/18 off 4 overs to the above.#RRvMI— Tom Moody (@TomMoodyCricket) April 22, 2024
Sandeep Sharma is easily the most underrated IPL player. Goes about his job silently, is very brainy and a wicket-taker. 193 T20 wickets at 7.5 Economy. Not a bad idea to consider him for World T20, I think.
