PICS : WORLD T 20 : SENSATIONAL SPELLS IN THIS MEGA TOURNAMENT

Amit Mishra- India - , Underrated Amit Mishra has transformed India's seemingly inadequate bowling resources into match winners, giving the former champions a perfect start in the World Twenty20 in Bangladesh. The leg-spinner picked up the man-of-the-match awards in two almost identical wins over Pakistan and the West Indies in group two of the Super-10 round, pushing India closer to the semifinals. Mishra grabbed two for 22 in four overs to restrict arch-rivals Pakistan to 130-7 and fashion his team's seven-wicket win . the 31-year-old claimed two for 18 in four overs to keep defending champions West Indies down to 129-7 in a match India again won by seven wickets. Mishra, who has recently spent more time on the bench than on the field, has played just three Twenty20 internationals despite making 13 Test and 23 one-day appearances since his debut in 2003. But he has continued to hone his skills in domestic cricket where he has been a consistent performer for Haryana state and the various franchises he has played for in the Indian Premier League.
