T20 World Cup 2022: 5 batters who can become highest run-scorers in mega event

The  T20 World Cup 2022 is around the corner and all the participating teams will be hoping to have a memorable tournament this time around. Meanwhile, a few of the in-form players will also be looking forward to cash in on their opportunities and showcase consistent performances for their respective sides.

There are a few batters who are currently enjoying a good run in the middle and can make their bat do the talking in the showpiece event down under. Morever, these batters have the caliber to single-handedly be the game changers for their respective sides. 

Without further ado, let's take a look at five batters who can potentially finish in the top-five run getters list at the end of the tournament. 

5. Jos Buttler

Jos Buttler has emerged as one of the best and most reliable batters in world cricket over the last few years and has the ability to take the match away from the opposition with his whirlwind batting performances.

The England limited-overs skipper didn't feature in any of the seven T20Is during the Pakistan series due to a calf injury, but it seems that he is peaking just at the right time before the T20 World Cup. Jos scored a quickfire 68 run-knock off just 32 deliveries in the first T20I against arch-rivals Australia at Perth and was involved in a 132-run opening stand with Alex Hales as the Three Lions eventually came out on top by eight runs.

By virtue of the knock, the England star seems to have regained his lost touch with the bat and, moreover, we must not forget that Buttler was the Orange Cap winner of IPL 2022 which makes him one of the potential candidates to have a memorable T20 World Cup.
