Only a few days are left for the start of the Indian Premier League 2022. All franchises are ready to go for the mega event. Fans are exciting too. IPL is coming back home after 2 years, though the first half of IPL 2021 is played here, the latter half is played in UAE due to the covid-19 pandemic. All the matches are going to play in Maharashtra, in four different stadiums. And pitches in Maharashtra are completely favorable for batsmen. So, this year we can see more runs, more sixes, and more centuries. And also check Who will score most centuries in IPL 2022.
5 Players who can score centuries in this IPL
If we are talking about runs then we often see batsmen scoring fifties, sixties, and seventies. But, if we talking about 100s in IPL then every year only 4 or 5 hundred we see. This year many Players are in forms like Shreyas Iyer, Ruturaj Gaikwad, Ishan Kishan, and a few others.
Specially Shreyas has recently become ICC player of the month after his terrific performance against Sri Lanka and the West Indies. Shreyas Iyer can hit the most number of centuries in this season.
5) Ishan kishan
Ishan Kishan who bought by Mumbai Indians in 15.25 Crore. He is in good form before IPL 2022. And most probably he is going to open with Rohit Sharma. Ishan Kishan is a hard hitter with the new ball in the powerplay. Kishan has 9 half-centuries in 61 matches with a strike rate of 136.33. His highest individual score is 99 which means he has the ability to hit big runs.
4) KL Rahul
The complete and destructive T20 batsman Rahul is coming back from injury. But, KL is the best batsman we saw in the past 3-4 years in IPL. He scored the bulk of runs for his franchises which includes 27 half-centuries and 2 centuries. His highest individual score is 132 not out. Since 2018 he is scoring more than 550 runs in every season with a 50+ average and strike rate of 140. Hopefully, he will continue his form in this IPL also and score more runs.
3) Suryakumar yadav
Suryakumar Yadav is in the brilliant form before the IPL, but he is coming from an injury. SKY is now the backbone of Mumbai Indians. He is a quick run-getter, who plays unorthodox shorts and gets runs quickly. SKY has the highest score of 79 not out. He is a middle-order batsman so gets fewer chances of scoring tons. Hope this year he hits a ton for Mumbai Indians.
2) Ruturaj Gaikwad
The young gun Ruturaj Gaikwad is in top form, he is the highest run-getter of IPL 2021. He scored 635 runs in his second IPL season. Ruturaj already scored one century in his small career of IPL. He has the ability to score big runs. Hopefully, he continues his top form in IPL 2022 and scores more runs.
Differently, he is the one who can score the most number of centuries in the 15th edition of IPL.
1) Shreyas Iyer
New skipper of Kolkata knight riders, Shreyas Iyer is in red hot form, he recently scored three 50+ scores in three-match series against West Indies. Shreyas Iyer has 96 has his highest score. He has the ability to hit big hundreds. IPL 2022 maybe going to be Shreyas Iyer’s year.
