Top 10 T20 specialists dominating the shortest format
These players are proven performers in both T20Is and domestic leagues.
9. Jos Buttler
The dashing England wicketkeeper-batter is a proven performer for England in the shortest form of the sport. In 2022, he was appointed as England’s captaincy mantle in the white-ball format, and after a few months, he led his side to the second T20 World Cup title in Australia. With 225 runs in six matches of the tournament, at a strike rate of 144.23, he ended up as the leading run-scorer for the champion side.
In the early stages of his T20I career, Buttler served England in the middle order, but after 2017, Eoin Morgan assigned him the task of an opener. The change in the batting position brought positive results as he succeeded in giving them but ideal starts to the team with his superb batting technique.
Currently, he is the highest run-scorer for England in T20Is, amassing 2713 runs with a ton and 20 half-centuries in 106 games at a fabulous strike rate of 144.07. The veteran also plays the cash-rich IPL regularly since 2016. In the past, he was associated with Mumbai Indians (MI) in the 2016-17 seasons, but currently, he is a vital cog in Rajasthan Royals (RR) due to his exceptional batting capability.
