  1. Jos Buttler

The England limited-overs skipper has a tremendous record in the shortest format of the game. In T20Is, he has played 94 games and has 2227 runs to his name at an average of 32.75 and a strike rate of 142.57 including a hundred and 15 fifties.

Notably, his maiden T20I hundred came in the last year's 20-20 World Cup in the UAE. Even though his form during the English summer wasn't that great, he had a tremendous time with the bat in the Indian T20 League 2022. The right-hander scored 863 runs during the tournament.

The former India skipper was out of form with the bat from the Indian T20 League 2022 to India's tour of England. During this phase, he could only score three fifties. After this, he took a break from the game.

Ahead of the Asia Cup 2022, he came to the side. During the tournament, he scored two fifties before breaking the long streak of not being able to score a hundred. In the game against Afghanistan, the right-hander scored 71st international hundred.

3. David Warner

The last year's 20-20 World Cup winner is one of the best T20I players around. In the 91 games played, he has amassed 2684 runs at an average of 33.55 and a strike rate of 140.89 including one hundred and 22 half-centuries.

He is also one of the most experienced players around. Bowlers will surely feel the fear while bowling to him as he can take the game away from the opposition.
