As of now, Shoaib Malik is the only cricketer to have played in excess of 100 T20Is. In 111 matches, the veteran has 2,263 runs at an average of 30.58. But it’s his calm and composed demeanour that has rescued Pakistan from precarious positions.

The all-rounder isn’t someone intimidating to the naked eye by any means, but has the technique and mindset to counter the best of bowling attacks. The Sialkot-born knows the art of changing gears as per the demand of the situation. He is no mug with the ball either.

Malik has rolled his arms over for 90 overs and has picked up 28 wickets with a decent economy of 7.15. Not to undermine his potential as a fielder. He is 37 years old and has already retired from Tests and ODIs, and is speculated to play a major role in next year’s World Cup.
