ICC T20 WCQ 2019: 5 players to watch out for

#4 Ravinderpal Singh

Ravinderpal Singh has the experience of playing under the captaincy of the 2011 World Cup-winning stalwart Yuvraj Singh for the Toronto Nationals in GT20 Canada 2019. However, he didn't do well in that tournament.

Shortly after the T20 tournament, however, the 30-year-old made a record by scoring a century on his T20I debut. With his 48-ball-101, the Canada batter overtook Ricky Ponting, who scored 98 in his T20I debut back in 2005.

Overtaking a 14-year-old record set by a legend like Ponting is no ordinary feat. Therefore, the right-hander has tons of ammo to set the stage on fire.

#3 Shaiman Anwar

Shaiman Anwar was the third leading run-scorer in the 2019 GT20 League Canada. The UAE batsman contributed 296 runs at a strike rate of 190.96 for his team Winnipeg Hawks. Anwar's 45-ball-90 helped the team win the finals of the 2019 GT20 League.

Standing on the frontline and playing an attacking brand of cricket makes him a valuable asset for the UAE cricket team. In the T20 World Cup Qualifiers, the team would be banking on him to lead from the front. With 971 runs in 32 T20I games, Anwar had always been consistent for them.
