We are just a few days away from marking the end of a calendar year of some action-packed Cricket. England lifted their second T20 World Cup title. Other teams have also been successful in the shortest format on the back of some brilliant performances put in by their batters. Suryakumar Yadav reached the magical figure of 1000 runs in a single calendar year 2022 in T20 internationals. With the help of 9 half-centuries and a couple of centuries, SKY has scored 1,164 runs this calendar year and will remain at the top spot with no more T20Is scheduled to be played in this year.

Mohammad Rizwan missed out on the 1000-run mark by 4 runs and also lost his top spot at the T20 world rankings to Surya Kumar Yadav. Virat Kohli found his lost form back and finished 2022 with 781 runs. Virat has one of the best averages among all the players on the list. The Zimbabwean sensation, Sikandar Raza takes the 4th spot scoring 735 runs in 23 games, Babar Azam has got the same number of runs but takes the 5th spot as he has played 3 matches more than the Zimbabwean all-rounder. Rohit Sharma has fallen down to the 8th place after a poor run of form in the shortest format, he has scored 656 runs in the 29 matches played and has the lowest average on the list.
