Mohammad Rizwan named Wisden’s Leading T20 Cricketer in the World in 2021

Karachi-Pakistan’s wicketkeeper-batter Mohammad Rizwan has been named the Leading T20 Cricketer in the World in the 2022 edition of the Wisden Almanack.

Rizwan, last time, came the first-ever cricketer in the history of T20 justice to amass over runs in a timetabled time. He scored runs in 45 innings at a normal of56.55 in 2021.
He also came the first-ever player to score T20 transnational runs in a timetabled time. His 2021 runs census includes runs at a normal of73.66 in transnational justice.
It’s worth mentioning that Rizwan in the former time was named among Widen Cricketers of the time as well.
While profiling Rizwan for Wisden, Alan Gardner wrote that Rizwan was fur as if blessed with foresight and recalled the videotape that went viral after Pakistan’s palm in ICC T20 World Cup against India.
“ Twenty20 fur is supposed to be an unpredictable, high-friction occupation smash- smash or bust. Sometimes, a player produces a grandiloquent patch to rise above the hurly-husky. But no bone has had a time of similar sustained run-scoring as Pakistan’s Mohammad Rizwan.

Before 2021, Mohammad Rizwan had scored 313 T20I runs in 26 matches.

In 2021 alone, he scored a staggering 1,326 runs at an average of 73.66, with one century and 12 half-centuries.

“ Noway mind seeing it well he was fur as if blessed with foresight. And in a sense he was. After starring in Pakistan’s ten-gate obliteration of India at the T20 World Cup, his clarity of purpose was added up by a viral videotape from the ICC that spliced his pre-game routine of visualization alongside the boundaries he struck during his 55-ball 79,” he wrote.
He also stressed how remarkable the time was for Mohammad Rizwan.
“ In all T20 justice, he made at 56. No bone — not Chris Gayle, not Virat Kohli, not Rizwan’s opening mate, Babar Azam, who last time scored himself — had ever got near,” Alan Gardner noted.
