3 Indian Batters Who Can Be The Highest Run Scorer In ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2022

Rohit Sharma

Rohit Sharma, being the skipper of the Men in Blue will play all the ICC T20 World Cup 2022 matches unless he’s injured. He may be the highest run-getter in the tournament.

This tournament will be Rohit Sharma’s first appearance as the captain of India in an ICC tournament. Rohit Sharma piled up 43 runs in 3 games in the previous T20I series against South Africa. He got out for ducks in two games but played a good knock in one match. In the prior T20I series against Australia, Rohit Sharma smacked 74 runs in 3 games and also won the man of the match award in one match.

Rohit Sharma will play the warm-up game against Australia and will try to be amongst runs prior to the ICC T20 World Cup 2022. He played both warm-up games against Western Australia XI and while he didn’t bat in the second, he scored 3 runs in the first match. He scored 15 in the warm-up game against Australia. While KL Rahul was India’s highest run-getter in the 2021 T20 World Cup with 194 runs, Rohit Sharma was 2nd with 174 runs.

Virat Kohli

Virat Kohli will play all the ICC T20 World Cup 2022 matches unless he’s injured. He may be the highest run-getter in the tournament. Virat Kohli will definitely play in the ICC T20 World Cup 2022 opening fixture against Pakistan. Virat Kohli recently returned to form in the Asia Cup 2022 where he was the 2nd highest run-getter by amassing 276 runs in 5 T20Is averaging 92.

He also hit a ton after 2019 and his first in T20I by scoring 122* against Afghanistan. He followed it up by scoring 63 in a T20I against Australia and 49* in a T20I against Proteas. He averages 67.67 against Pakistan having amassed 406 runs in 9 T20Is. He scored 19 in the warm-up game against Australia. He scored only 68 runs in the 2021 T20 World Cup in 3 innings.

Suryakumar Yadav

Suryakumar Yadav will play all the ICC T20 World Cup 2022 matches unless he’s injured. Suryakumar Yadav-the man who can’t do any wrong in this T20I format and India’s own Mr. 360, is one of the most improved players since the last World Cup and is going through a purple patch.

The right-handed batsman scored 119 runs in 3 games at an average of 59.50 and a strike rate of 195+ against South Africa. Against Australia, Suryakumar Yadav scored 115 runs in 3 games and also won the player of the series award. He averaged 59. 5 against Proteas and 38. 33 against Australia.

He has scored 801 runs this year averaging 40.05 in 23 innings at a strike rate of 184.56 and is ranked No. 2 in T20Is only behind Pakistan’s Mohammad Rizwan. He also showed his form against Western Australia in the first warm-up match scoring 52 off 35 balls. He scored another 50 in the warm-up game against Australia. He scored 42 runs in 3 innings in the last 2021 T20 World Cup.
