The Top 3 T20I Batsmen And What's In Store for Them

#2 Aaron Finch

Aaron Finch has been outstanding this year in the absence of senior players like David Warner and Steve Smith and has shown tremendous character and batting aggression in his innings. In the Australian cricketing circuit for the past 8 years, Finch's rise has been methodical and flamboyant. He has performed one notch higher in the absence of Warner and Smith and leading this inexperienced Aussie batting lineup to a few victories.

Aaron Finch on his way to scoring 172 runs

He has scored 436 runs in 8 ODIs averaging 54 with a strike rate of 96.50 which is exceptional batting. His T20I record this year is even impressive. He has scored 464 runs in 9 innings averaging 92.50 with a strike rate of 206.50 which is absolutely phenomenal. He set the highest score in a T20I match after scoring 172 against Zimbabwe in a tri-nation T20 competition breaking his own record for the highest score in a T20I innings.

What's next?

Aaron Finch will hope to give his best for his ODI side when the Aussies take on South Africa for a 3 match ODI series followed by one T20I. Then they will face India when they tour Australia for a 3 match T20 series.

#1 Babar Azam( Pakistan)

Babar Azam has been the major reason for Pakistan excelling in the shortest format of the game. Pakistan have broken several records like winning 11 consecutive T20I series. They have won 11 games while chasing and thus have a 100% record while chasing. Captain Sarfraz Ahmed has given Babar Azam, Fakhar Zaman full freedom to operate and they have repaid the favour with excellent performances.

Babar Azam

Babar has scored 321 runs in 8 innings with an average of 53.50 and a strike rate of 130 which speaks volumes about his consistency. He has scored 1087 runs from 26 innings in ODIs in the last 2 years averaging a whopping 57.62 with a strike rate of 86. He has made himself a household name in Pakistan cricket and is one of the factors for Pakistan retaining the No. 1 Spot in T20I rankings and he rightfully holds the no. 1 spot in the rankings.

What's next?

Pakistan will take on New Zealand in an ODI series after beating them in the T20I series and will later take on South Africa for yet another ODI and T20I series.
