The BCCI named Suryakumar Yadav and Bhuvneshwar Kumar as the two top performers for team India in the shortest format of the game. Suryakumar was in Midas touch in 2022 in the shortest format. He had a breakthrough year in international cricket and attained form barely seen at the highest level in this format. He became the second in the World and the first Indian to smash over 1000 runs in any calendar year in T20Is. He amassed 1164 runs in 31 matches at an average of 46.56 which included 2 centuries.
Bhuvneshwar Kumar was in decent form in 2022. Despite being criticized for leaking runs at crucial stages, Bhuvi picked 37 wickets in 32 matches at an economy of 6.98.
