T20 World Cup 2022 : Out of form XI ahead of the tournament
Several top stars are not in great touch ahead of the mega event to be played in Australia.
5. Khushdil Shah
Khushdil Shah has been a proven performer in the T20 circuit and has aggregated 2127 runs in 114 games at a strike of 133.77. But the southpaw has failed to replicate it at the bigger stages and has been all at sea in the international arena of late.
The 27-year-old was drafted in the middle order as the power-hitter but he has failed to perform as per expectations. Khushdil featured in five games in the recently culminated T20I series against England and scored mere 63 runs at a poor strike rate of 112.50. The Pakistan batter's performance was not that great at the Aisa Cup 2022 as he failed to have much impact in the games apart from the blistering knock of 35 runs against Hong Kong.
In the six games played at the Asian tournament, Khushdil scored 58 runs at a strike rate of 120.83. Due to his dismal showings, the middle-order batter has fallen behind the pecking order. He needs to make the opportunities count so that he can be a regular feature in Pakistan’s playing XI at the marquee tournament.
