Whom To Bet On The ICC Men’s T20 World Cup Tournament?

1. England – Tymal Mills
   The England cricket team players are a strong favorite among cricket fans and they are all set to fight defending champions West Indies in the upcoming Super 12 matches.
   While England’s cricket team is a talented mix of individuals, it is missing key players such as Jofra Archer ( who bowed out due to an injury,) Ben Stokes and Sam Curran.
   Which is why the recent addition of Tymal Mills has managed to pique the interest of cricket enthusiasts all over. Tymal Mills is known as one of the most explosive fast bowlers in the history of English cricket He is well versed in serving bowling speeds rivaling 90mph, and is all set to join the T20 world cup battle.
   Tymal had taken a break from professional cricket due to health complications and has made an early return. 4 years have passed since his last international cricket appearance and we are excited to see his fast bowling skills in the upcoming matches.
2. South africa – Tabraiz Shamsi
   A strong candidate from the South African national cricket team players is Tabraiz Shamsi, the top ranked bowler of the T20 series. Already flexing his record as the highest wicket taker this year (28 wickets) and positioned as the top bowler by ICC, the odds certainly are in his favour.
   His impressive track record and wicked spins prove as much.
3. Australia – Glenn Maxwell
   Among the Australian cricket team players Glenn Maxwell is what you call an ‘All rounder’ in the world of cricket, with an impressive ability to hit sixes, serve classy spins and field efficiently.
   He has carved an identity as a formidable and consistent player in the T20 league. Glen Maxwell under the strong leadership of team captain Aaron Finch is a great player to set your bets on.
   Riding high post a strong performance in the recent IPL championship, scoring 290 runs at an average of 41.43, he is all set to make a grab for the win.
4. West Indies – Nicholas Pooran
   Filling in as Vice – captain of the West Indies cricket team, 26 year old Nicholas Pooran is a promising, talented batsman, who has broken multiple records throughout his professional career as a cricketer.
   The defending champions West indies, have managed to secure and retain their title over two T20 championships, and will need all that it takes to continue this winning streak for the third time in a row.
   While Pooran’s career is sprinkled with highs and lows following his disappointing performance in the latest IPL season, Pooran himself  is confident about his form in the upcoming ICC T20 world cup 2021.
   With his ability to thrive under pressure and surprise the audience with sudden bursts of brilliance we’ve got our eyes on this Trinidadian cricketer from the West Indies Cricket Team players squad.
5. India – KL Rahul
   Stellar batsman KL Rahul is definitely a must on multiple watch lists as a formidable force all set to outperform the Indian Cricket Team players with his stupendous form and consistency over the season. While India does have promising players and new talent cropping up, the Virat Kohli led team provides a strong support to the batsman and skipper to showcase his talent on the field.
   He has also amped up his performance in the warm ups, and If the warm up games are any indication of what’s to come, a lot is expected from his performance in the T20 series.Related read: T20 World Cup: All Team Players List – Key Players to Place Your Bet On

   His strong performance in the Super Smash final earlier this year along with him attaining 1071 runs at an average of 53.55 in T20 makes him a worthwhile opponent. We are all excited to see how the left hand batsman knocks us in the showdown. Amongst all the New Zealand National Cricket Team players, Conway could lead the way.
8. Afghanistan – Rashid Khan
   23 year old Rashid Khan from the Afghanistan Cricket Players team is cited as one of the most in demand international players at the moment. His edge comes from his ability to serve complicated and consistent spinners making him an indispensable bowler to his team.
