Fantasy Cricket All-Rounders to Look out for in Asian Cup This Year

The ongoing Asia Cup 2022, a significant cricket tournament, is expected to enthral viewers from all around the world. Following a 4-year break, the most anticipated match of fantasy cricket in Bangladesh and the rest of the world started in August and will last until September of 2022. On August 27, the 2022 Asia Cup officially began. The grand finale of the most hyped Asian Cup 2022 will take place on September 11. The sport is famed for generating great batsmen and bowlers, but as times have changed and fresh formats have emerged, we have witnessed all-rounders play an increasingly important part in T20 cricket.

In keeping with this, we bring you the name of some of the top all-rounder players to keep an eye out for in the 2022 Asia Cup.

Rohit Sharma

The top spot in the statistics for the most runs scored in T20 Internationals has cycled between the Indian captain and Martin Guptill of New Zealand. As this is essentially a practice run for the T20 World Cup later this year, Rohit will want to take the initiative in his first major competition as captain. He is among the top contenders to win the championship with the most runs thanks to his potential to score in boundaries and accumulate large totals.

Hardik Pandya

HP recently demonstrated his true potential as a guy in form. Pandya came back to the Indian team with a bang following a string of injuries and much-needed rehabilitation, and we can’t wait to see him maintain this form at the Asia Cup 2022. With a strike rate close to 150 and a bowling average of around 28, he will undoubtedly be heard throughout the competition.

Shakib Al Hasan

Now that he is back in control, Bangladesh’s all-rounder Shakib will need to set an example in every area if he is to lead his team to victory. They would hope to qualify this time since they have done so at three of the last four Asia Cups.

Mohammad Rizwan

The 30-year-old batsman has featured 56 T20 Internationals for Pakistan and has amassed 1662 runs with a strike rate of nearly 129. His consistency is demonstrated by the fact that he is one of just a few cricketers with an average of 50 in T20 International cricket. In recent years, Rizwan and Babar Azam have developed into a wonderful team in shorter formats. They will also perform this wonderful duo at the Asia Cup in 2022. Rizwan is the ideal counterbalance to Azam since he finds his own ways to score runs while relieving the captain of any scoring-related burden. In 2021, Rizwan—who also collects wickets—had a game-changing performance and was named the ICC T20 Player of the Year. Given that he had amassed 1326 runs in 29 games at an average of 73.66 with 1 century and that he had also been the wicketkeeper for 24 of those matches, it was hardly shocking.

Bhanuka Rajapaksa

Even though Bhanuka, 28, is a bit of a latecomer to international cricket, he has accomplished enough in the past few years to get people’s attention. The left-handed Sri-Lankan batsman has contributed significantly, with 350 runs from 21 T20 Internationals at a strike rate of 134.61 along with two fifty-plus scores. He may have had a lacklustre 2022 through three T20Is, but Bhanuka can change that at the Asia Cup 2022. Bhanuka scored 206 runs for team Punjab in the Indian T20 League of 2021 from 9 games, with a strike rate of 159.
