Suryakumar Yadav becomes ICC Men's T20I Cricketer of the Year 2022
Suryakumar Yadav was a standout batter in the 2022 year owing to his breathtaking strokeplay, scoring 1164 runs in just 31 matches at a stunning strike rate of 187.43 and an average of 46.56. He is ridiculous with his willow and can send the ball to any region by showing off his 360-degree skills. It’s impossible to not wonder at how he brings his fearless eccentric shots; they are, without a doubt, a treat to the eyes. He is also the first Indian to win T20I cricketer of the year award.
The 32-year-old became the second batter to score more than 1000 runs in a calendar year in T20Is. He whacked two hundred and nine half-centuries, and he also hit 68 spectacular maximums, the most by anyone in a calendar year in the history of T20I cricket.

In the last year’s ICC Men’s T20 World Cup in Australia, Yadav was at his best, slamming three fifties in six innings at a strike rate of 189.68 and an average of 60. Earlier in 2022, Yadav had hit a century, and later, after the T20 World Cup, he scored another, in a bilateral series against New Zealand. He reached his career-best 890 rating points in ICC Men’s T20I Player Rankings.

His best is a 117-run score vs England
One of his breathtaking matches was one against England in Nottingham. When India were reeling at 31/3, Yadav entered and started right from the word go while chasing 216. He got dismissed after a 55-ball 117 runs, which is also his best T20I score.
He is a late bloomer as he earned his cap at the age of 30 in 2021 and now almost three years later, he became the best T20I player in 2022. After years of showcasing his batting in the Indian Premier League (IPL), Yadav made his debut against England on March 14, 2021. In his maiden T20I match, he sent the first ball he faced, off Jofra Archer, for a six to announce his arrival.
And now, in 45 T20I matches, he has amassed 1578 runs with a highest score of 117 at a strike rate of 180.34. He has three hundred and 13 fifties, while his overall strike rate is also the highest in the shortest format.
