Ngidi impressed in the global tournament taking 12 wickets at an average of 15.58, including four against Canada and three apiece against Afghanistan and West Indies.
The seamer also had a miserly spell against India that yielded just 15 runs from four overs.

Holder took three wickets against Scotland and four against Nepal before stepping up with the bat in the Super Eights.
The team is rounded out by Zimbabwe's Blessing Muzarabani, who was key to his side's stunning group stage performances.
The lanky seamer took 4-17 as Zimbabwe beat Australia and finished the group stage with nine wickets.
The team's 12th player is Shadley van Schalkwyk, who took 13 wickets for the USA at a rate of just 6.84 and economy of 6.80.
