251 runs @ 50.2, HS: 62, SR: 114.61

The leading wicket-taker in BPL 2024 when he exited the tournament, Babar hit two half-centuries and played a key role in their run to the top of the table. The strike rate invited debate.

Mohammad Rizwan – Comilla Victorians

85 runs @ 21.25, HS: 21, SR: 82.52

A forgettable outing for Pakistan’s second-highest run-getter in T20Is. Retained by the Victorians, Rizwan managed a high score of just 21 from five games opening the batting. The worrying bit? A strike rate of 82.

Khushdil Shah – Comilla Victorians

65 runs @ 13, HS: 21, SR: 144.44

Rizwan’s teammate at Victorians, Khushdil batted at No.5, generating quick cameos at the backend of innings. Pushed to No.7 in one of them games, he managed a 22-ball 21.

77 runs @ 15.4, HS: 35, SR: 95.06

Ahmed Shehzad – Fortune Barishal

155 runs @ 25.83. HS: 66, SR: 143.51

Shoaib Malik – Fortune Barishal

113 runs @ 56.5, HS: 41*, SR: 131.39, 3 wickets @ 22, BBI: 2-24, ER: 9.42

It was an eventful entry for Malik, who played his first BPL 2024 game the day he made his wedding public. There were shades of the Malik of old, including an unbeaten 25-ball 41 in a 156-run chase, but also encountered controversy following his three front-foot no-balls in the same over.

Abbas Afridi – Fortune Barishal

2 wickets @ 54.5, ER: 9.08, BBI: 1-26

5 wickets @ 16.4, ER: 6.83, BBI: 3-15; 100 runs @ 50, HS: 55, SR: 142.85

10 wickets @ 18.8, ER: 8.74, BBI: 4-29

Aamer Jamal – Comilla Victorians

6 wickets @ 10.33, ER: 6.52, BBI: 5-23

Another fast-bowling talent, Jamal played just three matches but made his presence felt, picking up a five-wicket haul against the Khulna Tigers in a Player of the Match performance.

Mohammad Wasim – Khulna Tigers
