T20 World Cup 2022: Ranking 5 key batters of Bangladesh ahead of mega event
Bangladesh will rely heavily on their batters to qualify for the semi-finals of the T20 extravaganza.
2. Shakib Al Hasan
Shakib Al Hasan will be the key man for the Bangladesh team if they are to proceed into the semi-finals of the showpiece event. Since 2006, he has been a regular figure of the team across all the formats. Earlier this year, he was given an opportunity to lead the Bangla Tigers due to his experience and counter-attacking ability to score runs.
Shakib has been in top form in the T20Is this year, especially with the bat. In July, he slammed 68* off 52 against the West Indies, and had a good Caribbean Premier League 2022 as well. In the recent T20I tri-series, Shakib emerged as the top contributor for the side with 154 runs in three appearances at a strike rate of 150.98.
His knocks of 68 and 70 against sides like Pakistan and New Zealand respectively, surely signal his rising confidence in the shortest format. He is poised to be one of the top batters in the T20 World Cup for Bangladesh.
