Emrit is talented but has not found his stride in T20 cricket

Rayad Emrit has all the ingredients to become an ideal T-20 player. He bowls medium-pace with subtle variations that deny the batsmen any opportunity to free their arms and also has the capacity to hit lusty blows that make him an effective middle-order batsman.

However, somehow he hasn't been able to find his mojo in the shortest format of the game. His bowling often lacks the sharpness and in batting, he either comes in too late to make a significant impact or throws his wicket while playing an ambitious stroke.

Earlier this year, he featured in the Hong Kong Twenty20 Blitz and scored 15 runs in three innings along with claiming seven wickets in five innings. The 36-year-old is entering the CPL with very few runs and wickets behind him and hence is already under the radar.

The emergence of other young all-rounders has pushed Emrit to the corner and he is representing the Amazon Guyana Warriors in this year's CPL with his career on the line.
