Top 5 T20I pacers of 2024: No Bumrah or Afridi in ex-cricketer's list
Aakash Chopra ranked the top T20I pacers of 2024. India's Arshdeep Singh topped the list. Pakistan's Abbas Afridi secured the second position. Matheesha Pathirana, Lockie Ferguson, and Haris Rauf followed. Chopra excluded Jasprit Bumrah and Shaheen Afridi due to selection criteria. Bumrah played fewer matches, and Afridi's performance against top teams was considered insufficient.
