Raza included in ICC Men’s T20 Team of the Year 2022

Zimbabwe all-rounder Sikandar Raza has made it into the International Cricket Council (ICC) Men’s T20I Team of the Year.

He had a stellar year with the bat and also contributed significantly with the ball in T20Is. He was at the centre of all things good that happened for Zimbabwe Cricket during the year, with the all-rounder putting in one brilliant performance after another in the shortest format.

Not only was he the leading scorer for Zimbabwe with 735 runs but he also led the wickets chart for them, scalping 25 wickets at an excellent economy rate of 6.13.

He was the Player of the Tournament at T20 World Cup Qualifier B in July and carried his form into the marquee event, winning the Player of the Match thrice, including Zimbabwe’s epic win over Pakistan in Perth.

This has seen him also nominated for ICC Men’s T20I Cricketer of the Year.

The team is as follows

Jos Buttler (C), Mohammad Rizwan, Virat Kohli, Suryakumar Yadav, Glen Phillips, Sikandar Raza, Hardik Pandya, Sam Curran, Wanindu Hasaranga, Haris Rauf, Josh Little.
