Best Bowling Figures: Mustafizur achieved his best bowling figures of 0/34 in a single match. While this may not reflect a wicket, it showcases his ability to maintain a decent economy rate during his overs, indicating a level of control over the batsmen faced.
Total Runs Conceded: Over the course of his matches in the 2017 season, he conceded a total of 34 runs in a match against the Mumbai Indians, which demonstrates his capacity to minimize scoring opportunities despite not claiming wickets.
