While batsmen dominated the Asia Cup 2025, some bowlers kept the run rate in check and played a crucial role for their team with their economical bowling. Economy, or bowling average, is considered crucial in the T20 format. So let's take a look at the bowlers who bowled the most economically in this year's Asia Cup.
1. Azmatullah Omarzai (Afghanistan) - Economy 4.71
Afghanistan fast bowler Azmatullah Umarzai bowled 7 overs in just 3 matches, conceding just 33 runs. He also took 3 wickets, with a best performance of 1/4. Economy rates under 5 are rare in the T20 format, and Umarzai has secured the number one spot with an impressive economy rate of 4.71.
2. Abrar Ahmed (Pakistan) - Economy 5.36
Pakistani spinner Abrar Ahmed took six wickets in 26.4 overs in seven matches. His economy rate was 5.36, which is considered excellent for a spinner. His best performance was 2/13. Abrar put pressure on the opposition batsmen by restricting runs in the middle overs.
3. Rashid Khan (Afghanistan) - Economy 6.08
Rashid Khan, one of the most dangerous T20 bowlers in the world, is also included in this list. He bowled 12 overs in three matches and maintained an economy rate of less than 6. He took three wickets in total, with a best performance of 2/26.
4. Sufian Muqeem (Pakistan) - Economy 6.17

5. Kuldeep Yadav (India) - Economy 6.27
Team India's star spinner Kuldeep Yadav took the most wickets in the tournament with 17, but the remarkable thing is that despite all these wickets, his economy rate was only 6.27. He bowled 25.1 overs in 7 matches, with 4/7 being his best performance.
