5 Players who have a better T20I batting average than both Virat Kohli and Babar Azam
The averages of 50.8 and 50.72 by Virat and Babar respectively are the highest in T20I cricket among the players who have scored over 500 runs.
3. Usman Limbada – 53.00
Usman Limbada was often in and out of the Canada team during the early 2010s. Limbada, who was specialist middle-order batsman, failed to achieve consistency which is why he was never cemented his spot in the Canada team. He played a total of 18 International matches for Canada between 2010 and 2014 – 11 ODIs and seven T20Is.
Limbada played three T20Is in 2010 during the Associate’s tournaments in 2010 but never got a chance to bat. Later, he was part of the 2014 WT20 Qualifier and the lead-up tournaments in 2013 hosted by UAE. Usman featured in four matches with T20I status during that period but got to bat in only three matches; all against Kenya.
He scored 16* and 21* at quick pace batting at No.7 and crawled to 16 off 19 balls before being run-out while batting at No.3. It turned out to be his last appearance in the T20I format. In total, Usman Limbada scored 53 runs across the three matches and was only dismissed once. Usman last played for Canada in 2017 across any format and it seems unlikely he will play a T20I again.
