5 batsmen to watch out for in the Abu Dhabi T10 2021

#3 Evin Lewis (Delhi Bulls)

Evin Lewis has hit a rough patch of late

Evin Lewis was on the cusp of becoming a fixture in all T20 franchise tournaments around the world, but his inconsistency has let him down of late. The southpaw hasn't been seen in action since the Caribbean Premier League back in September 2020, and he will be itching to get back amongst the runs.

Lewis will play under countryman Dwayne Bravo at the Delhi Bulls, with players like Mohammad Nabi and Sherfane Rutherford for company. The T10 format might just be what the 29-year-old needs to revive his stuttering career. Lewis is certainly one to keep an eye on in the Abu Dhabi T10 2021.

#2 Nicholas Pooran (Northern Warriors)

Pooran will captain the Northern Warriors in the Abu Dhabi T10 2021

Nicholas Pooran made a splash on his Big Bash League debut for the Melbourne Stars as he smashed 8 sixes in a rapid 65. Although his form fell off after the innings, he comes into the Abu Dhabi T10 2021 with sufficient match practice under his belt.

Pooran will captain the Northern Warriors in the tournament, and leadership can be expected to elevate his game by a couple of notches at least. Capable of single-handedly taking the game away from the opposition, the left-hander will have all eyes on him in the Abu Dhabi T10 2021.

#1 Chris Gayle (Team Abu Dhabi)

All eyes will be on Chris Gayle, who will look to set the Abu Dhabi T10 on fire

Chris Gayle needs no introduction. The Universe Boss turned the Kings XI Punjab's struggling Indian Premier League campaign around and nearly dragged them to a playoff spot.

Now, Gayle will be seen in action in the T10 format, and he has already promised fans a large dose of "cricket entertainment". He will play for Team Abu Dhabi alongside the likes of Luke Wright, Chris Morris and Hayden Walsh Jr.
