The best criteria to judge a players ability and talent is to check the performances of all three formats of crickets. I have seen many international players who can play white ball cricket exceptionally well but lacks in red ball and vice-versa. The calendar year of 2022 has witnessed many young and experienced players who scored most runs in 2022 in all formats be it ODI, T20, or Test.

The growth of Babar from over the last years has been improved drastically, where he even got compared by Virat Kohli for his back to back hundreds and match winning performance.

Moreover, Virat is way ahead in terms of scoring centuries and runs as well but in the coming years Babar will definitely looking forward to take the place of Virat which is quite tough.

2. Liton Das

One of the best versatile player who can play in Australia, England or sub continent regardless of the condition, Litas Das has played some really good innings in 2022 year in every format.

The Bangladesh team’s main opener Litas Das played 50 innings in which he made 1,921 runs which also adds 3 hundreds and 13 fifties in the account.

If we look at his best inning of 2022, it would be the knock of 141 runs against Sri Lankan team in test cricket, When I saw that match I was quite impressed by his leg side shots which he plays dominantly.

         1,921            50           13              3

One of the best middle order batsman of Indian cricket who is missing international cricket from couple of months due to injury, Shreyas Iyer was impressing everyone in every format of cricket before his injury.

Shreyas Iyer is the only Indian batter who scored most runs in 2022 in all formats, out of 40 innings he smashed 1,609 runs with the impressive average of 48.75 per inning.

In the upcoming world cup 2023, Shreyas would be looking forward to make comeback in the playing 11 as he is the important player who provides stability in the middle order.

I personally feels, Iyer is probably the best batter of spin in the current Indian cricket squad, specially his ability to take down off spinner for lofted shot in the long on.

The short arm jab specialist, Rizwan played 47 innings where he made 1,598 runs with 38.97 decent average. Who can forget his contribution in 2021 t20 world cup game against India where he single handedly took the match away.

The man who needs no introduction in world cricket, because he already established his name as the best test batsman of modern day era, Yes we are talking about Australian batter Steven Smith.

There has been many talks in recent times regarding Smith’s white ball cricket approach and records, many thinks he is not suitable for short format cricket, which I don’t think completely true.

No doubt, Steve Smith is not power hitter in t20 cricket, but at crucial time he played many good knocks for his country and BBL as well. Whereas in ODI cricket he is still one of the best batter in 50 overs format.

Former Aussie batter, Smith scored 1,560 runs in 39 innings with exceptional average of 50.32 per match. Therefore, Steve Smith grabs 5th position in the list of most runs in 2022 in all formats.

6. David Warner

There has been many left handed batsman who came and disappear but there are some exceptions like Sangakkara, Brian Lara, Adam Gilchrist. Now, there is another name which will going to add in form of David Warner in this list.

Iconic batsman David Warner has dominated each and every format of cricket including the league cricket like IPL as well.
Looking at his stats in 2022 in all three formats, David Warner successfully scored 1,463 runs out of 44 matches he played. It also includes the highest score of 200 runs against South Africa in test format.

7. Suryakumar Yadav

Suryakumar Yadav is a player who made runs consistently in IPL for 2-3 years but still did not got the call for Indian cricket, when finally he got opportunity to play, guess what he became main player of team in white ball cricket.

India’s own 360 player SKY, who can play each and every direction of the ground effortlessly regardless of the bowler and conditions.

From last 2 years whenever teams needs some quick runs in middle order, SKY has stood up every time for the team where he smashed 1,424 runs in 43 matches which makes him 7th player to score most runs in 2022 in all formats.

Though, He did not scored runs in test cricket as he did not got enough chances in red ball as of now, but when it comes to odi and t20 he becomes nightmare for the bowler.

         1,424            44            10              2

8. Devon Conway

The 8th highest scorer of 2022 international cricket, Coming from New Zealand, the classy batsman Devon Conway who looks stunning when he plays lofted cover drive over the covers on the ground.

One thing which I noticed about New Zealand players is, that they play spin very well be it Williamson, Glenn Phillips, or Devon Conway.

Kiwi opener, Conway has played some really good knock across all formats where he smashed 1,417 runs in 37 matches he played in year 2022.

Moreover, Conway is one of those player who can perform in any given position in the team whenever team requires him, that’s because his strong technique and adaptability in the game.

         1,417            37            8              2

9. Sikandar Raza

To be honest it feels really good to see players like Sikandar Raza coming from underdog teams like Zimbabwe from last couple of years, which makes the game more exciting and competitive.

The right arm off spinner and batter, Raza has been with Zimbabwe from quite a long period of time but from last couple of years he has improved his game a lot which made him 9th player to score most runs in 2022 in all formats.

Raza is quite valuable player for Zimbabwe as he gives extra bowling option and can play big knock in under pressure situation because he has gained pretty good experience from his career till now.

Let me tell you his records of year 2022, Raza played 38 innings out of those he managed to score 1380 runs with the average of 40.58 runs in every inning.

The man who helps commentators, Rishabh Pant is absolute package of entrainment behind the wickets and with the bat as well has managed to get 10th spot in the list of most runs in 2022 in all formats.

Pant is probably one of the best fearless batsman in test cricket along with odi and t20. I mean how can someone bully bowlers like Nathan Lyon and James Anderson with single handed sixes.

Indian middle order batter Pant played 43 innings in 2022 including all formats where he made 1,380 runs which also includes his brilliant knock of 146 runs against England in their home.
