Even though he currently is the number one all-rounder in the ICC’s Men’s All-rounder Ranking, there has been a dip in his form. Nabi was below average in the recently concluded Asia Cup. With new talents coming into the squad, the 37-year-old might leave his spot and give the youngsters a chance before the next <a href="https://www.crictracker.com/social-tracker-cricket/shimron-hetmyer-getting-dropped-from-t20-world-cup-squad-for-missing-a-flight-triggers-a-memefest/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">T20 World Cup</a> in 2024. Meanwhile, the all-rounder might continue to play franchise cricket all over the world.&nbsp;

Shakib Al Hasan is arguably the greatest Bangladesh player of all time. Be it with the bat or with the ball, the all-rounder has time and again proved his ability in the shortest format of the game.

Even after his recent poor run of form, the team management appointed him as the <a href="https://www.crictracker.com/cricket-news/he-is-a-team-first-type-of-captain-daren-sammy-lavishes-praises-on-rohit-sharma/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">captain</a> of the side and that proves the amount of calibre he possesses.

He is very economical in a format that often sees bowlers going for a lot of runs. Shakib can bowl in the powerplay as well and that’s a massive plus point from a team's point of view.

Again it’s not age or fitness, like Nabi, Shakib might also leave his spot for the youngsters to come in and take Bangladesh cricket forward. He plays a lot of franchise cricket and post his retirement from T20 internationals, he can very well continue with that. However, when it comes to ODI cricket, he will definitely eye to do well for Bangladesh in the 2023 World Cup.

Another skipper who might decide to retire after the all-important T20 World Cup 2022. Interestingly, Aaron Finch will have the opportunity to finish his T20I career on a high note as the Aussie can join Darren Sammy as the only captain to win two T20 World Cups and also will become the only captain to defend the trophy and retain it on home soil.

However, the 35-year-old may call call time on his T20I career to give proper chance to the youngsters. Cameron Green has already proved his class at the top of the order. Finch, like others on the list would love to continue playing the T20 format for various franchises around the world.

Kiwi international Martin Guptill is one of the greatest names in the T20 format. The opener has shown his ruthless nature multiple times in his career but hasn’t won any major tournament. Thus, the T20 World Cup is going to be a very important tournament for the cricketer.&nbsp;

With 121 T20I matches to his name, the 36-year-old Guptill has scored 3497 runs in the process. His strike rate of 135.80 is also very impressive. However, with Finn Allen now being a part of the <a href="https://www.crictracker.com/cricket-news/the-goal-is-to-rotate-the-squad-selector-gavin-larsen-on-new-zealand-squad-for-upcoming-tri-series/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">New Zealand</a> squad, he needs to prove his mettle every single time.

However, the problem lies in his batting. His consistency has been an issue in recent times and that’s why Finn Allen’s name comes into the picture. With the ODI World Cup schelduled to happen next year, Guptill might retire from T20Is and focus more on ODI cricket.

Indian off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin is ageing like a fine wine. However, when it comes to picking wickets in T20I cricket, Ashwin often fails to be the star that he is. He remains to be economical for sure that’s the reason why India still backs him in the shortest format of the game.&nbsp;

His economy of 6.80 is brilliant and to add to that, the off-spinner can contribute with the bat as well. However, with the next T20 World Cup scheduled to take place in the year 2024, Ashwin might hang his T20I boots and help the youngsters take charge in the next edition.

In the meantime, he can concentrate to make a grand return to the ODI set-up. With the tournament set to be organised in India, Ashwin may get a call to represent India. His impact in the 2011 World Cup was there for everyone to see and he can once again do that in his home country.&nbsp;
