Muthusamy says Proteas have to be flexible to thrive in T20 format

His batting record in the T20 format is reasonable — a strike rate of 112.47 and five half-centuries. He's better known for his bowling, with consistent contributions across formats earning him eight international caps, including five Tests. Muthusamy has been a keen listener throughout his career, starting with long chats with Keshav Maharaj when the duo were together at KwaZulu-Natal. At the Pretoria Capitals he tapped into the expertise of England World Cup winner Adil Rashid, when the leg-spinner spent a season in the SA20. 'To pick his brain, what his thought processes are, and the way he dissects what he is trying to do in different conditions was very interesting,' said Muthusamy. With the T20 World Cup being hosted in India and Sri Lanka next February, the composition of the spinning line-up will form an intriguing subplot in South Africa's build-up. Nqaba Peter, George Linde and Muthusamy are getting a first crack at impressing Conrad in what will be a busy six months leading up to that tournament with T20 series' in Australia, England, Pakistan and India on the calendar. However after the loss against New Zealand, Muthusamy said that the Proteas' focus is very much on the short-term. 'We don't look too far ahead, the most important game is Sunday's against Zimbabwe.'

Varun Chakravathy remains No. 3 T20I bowler; England's Rashid rises to second

Dubai: England's white-ball contingent was awarded after a string of standout performances against the West Indies propelled several players up the ICC Men's T20I Rankings, with veteran leg-spinner Adil Rashid leading the charge. Rashid, 37, was a model of consistency in England's 3-0 T20I series sweep, returning figures of 1/22 at Chester-Le-Street, 1-59 in a high-scoring clash at Bristol, and a match-turning 2/30 in the final game at Southampton. His efforts were enough to leapfrog both Sri Lanka's Wanindu Hasaranga and India's Varun Chakaravarthy, moving him into second place in the T20I Bowling Rankings with a rating of 710, just 13 points behind New Zealand's Jacob Duffy, the current No. 1. The leggie's rise encapsulates a dominant run for England, who extended their momentum from the earlier ODI series win over the same opponents. Brydon Carse, another of England's pace options, also saw a reward for his tidy contributions. His two wickets across the final two T20Is pushed him up 16 spots to 52nd in the rankings. The series was rich in runs, and the batter rankings reflected that. Ben Duckett made a stunning impact with a blazing 84 off 46 balls in the third T20I — a knock that catapulted him 48 places to a career-best 16th. Harry Brook's pair of quickfire cameos, 35* and 34, earned him a six-place bump to joint-38th. West Indies had their moments, too. Captain Shai Hope's pair of 40-plus scores helped him climb 14 places to 15th in the batting list, while Rovman Powell's explosive 79 not out from 45 balls in the final game earned him a place in the top 20. All-rounder Jason Holder also enjoyed a productive series with both bat and ball, moving up 16 places to 26th in the All-Rounder Rankings thanks to 70 runs and a crucial wicket.

England's Adil Rashid rises to number two spot in T20I bowling rankings

England spinner veteran Adil Rashid is just one step away from the ICC Men's T20I Bowling Rankings summit, having climbed to the second spot in the rankings issued on Wednesday. Rashid was consistent across England's 3-0 series victory over the West Indies, claiming 1/22 (4 overs) at Chester-le-Street, 1/59 (4 overs) in a high-scoring affair in Bristol, and 2/30 (4 overs) in Southampton, as per ICC. His efforts mean he passes Wanindu Hasaranga and Varun Chakaravarthy to second on the T20I Bowling Rankings, with his rating of 710 in touching distance to Kiwi quick Jacob Duffy on 723. England were strong in their home stand, picking up where they left off in their victorious ODI series efforts against the same opponents. Rashid's teammate Brydon Carse also enjoyed a Bowling Rankings jump, with two wickets across the final two matches, leading to a 16-spot jump to 52nd (493). Runs flowed in the three-match series, with players from both sides enjoying significant jumps on the updated T20I Batter Rankings. A blazing 84 (46) from Ben Duckett in the third T20I was a major help in his 48-spot jump to 16th, with teammate Harry Brook's 35 not out (22) and 34 (20) helping him to a six-spot jump to a share of 38th. On the other side, two knocks in the 40s from Shai Hope helped the West Indies skipper move 14 spots to 15th, while Rovman Powell made a move into the top 20 in large part thanks to an effort of 79 not out from 45 balls in the final T20I. Jason Holder's series of 70 runs and a wicket meanwhile, helped the West Indian up 16 spots to 26 in the All-Rounder Rankings.
