It is fair to say that cricket has evolved a lot in the last two decades. The advent of T20 cricket has changed the outlook of the game completely. Given that the teams now look for batsmen with healthy strike-rates, batting average, today, doesn’t count for much in the shortest format. However, consistency is still considered an important aspect unless it doesn’t compromise on the aggressive intent needed to play the game.

In a bid to play with an aggressive mindset, often the consistency goes for a toss. It’s hard to make runs consistently in T20 cricket. There aren’t many cricketers who have scored runs consistently in T20 cricket and that too with a healthy strike rate.

Scoring a half-century isn’t a small feat in T20 cricket. Batsmen don’t get a lot of deliveries to notch big totals. When one talks about the players with the most number of 50-plus scores in T20 internationals, a lot more number of top-order batsmen, understandably, feature in the list as they get more deliveries to play.
