Most Expensive Bowling Figures in World Cup: In the modern era, cricket has become a batting-heavy sport due to new rules. Some phenomena like reverse swing are becoming rarer by the day, and bowlers tend to take heavy punishment nowadays.
However, not everything is unfavourable to bowlers. Credit goes to batters as well. The fitness and conditioning of batsmen these days are much better than those in the old times, resulting in more exciting and action-packed games.
Some bowlers have consistently performed well for their teams despite the current rule set and taken wickets without conceding too many runs. But bowlers are becoming more expensive with respect to their economy rate. And the ODI World Cup is the biggest example.
Today, we bring you the list of players who have conceded the most runs in World Cup history. Only 4 bowlers on the list played before the 2011 World Cup. Check out who is the most expensive bowler in the World Cup below.
