After making a return to the T20 side of the Indian cricket team for the IND vs. AFG T20 series, Indian skipper Rohit Sharma is on the verge of breaking a record. Having last played a match in 2022, it looked like Rohit might never play T20Is for India ever again. But now that he’s returned, he has the chance to hit the most sixes in a T20I as captain.

Most sixes in T20I as captain

Virat Kohli

Virat Kohli led the India cricket team in 50 T20I. In these matches, he scored 1570 runs at an average of 47.58 while striking the ball at 140.55. The former Indian skipper led India to 30 wins in his career as a skipper, all the while hitting 13 fifties.

Ramesh Satheesan

Ramesh has the best six-hit ratio per match. Despite playing just 38 matches as skipper, Ramesh has 1197 runs at a rapid strike rate of 155.45 with 61 sixes to his name.

Aaron Finch

The former Australian skipper was well known for his hitting prowess. Apart from winning the 2021 T20 World Cup, Finch also held the record for the highest individual score in T20I cricket (172). In his 76-match career as captain, Finch smashed 82 sixes.

Eoin Morgan

The man who changed the landscape of white-ball cricket in the world is former English skipper Eoin Morgan. The southpaw was a proficient hitter and holds the record for most sixes in an ODI inning.

Rohit Sharma

Rohit, the only active skipper on the list, has the chance to break the record for hitting the most sixes in a T20I as captain. Rohit has led in 51 matches and is tied with Finch at 82 sixes. If he manages to hit five sixes in the IND vs. AFG T20I series, he’ll hold the record.
