3 players who will wear the No.1 shirt in the 2022 T20 World Cup

 

The no. 1 shirt is a popular shirt in the game of cricket. In football, it is usually reserved for the goalkeepers but in cricket, there is no such role-based categorization. A few popular cricketers will don No.1 on their backs at the 2022 T20 World Cup. In this article, we take a look at 3 players who will wear the No.1 shirt in the 2022 T20 World Cup.

1) KL Rahul (India)

KL Rahul is one of the most popular cricketers to wear the No.1 shirt. The Karnataka batter will be the vice-captain for the Indian Team at the event. As an opener, his contribution will be necessary for the Indian Team. Moreover, with him being a good backfoot player, his style suits the conditions in Australia. India will hope that KL can stay in good form.

2) Paul Stirling (Ireland)

Paul Stirling is one of the players who will wear the No.1 shirt in the 2022 T20 World Cup. The Irish opener is an underrated cricketer. Despite doing well for his nation and in various other leagues, he often goes under the radar when there is a discussion about top openers. Nevertheless, he now has a chance to make noise at the highest level. If Stirling can delivery some memorable performances, the platform is available for him to increase his reputation.

3) Najibullah Zadran (Afghanistan)

 The Afghan cricketer is quite experienced in the T20 format. He has also played in various T20 leagues. Therefore, his role will be very critical for the Afghans at the upcoming event. The team will look to cause a few upsets in the Super 12 stage.
