5 players with most sixes per innings in T20Is

#4 KL Rahul

KL Rahul

41 sixes in 24 innings (1.70)

This is one name you probably don’t expect in this list. KL Rahul is not known for his six-hitting ability but he features in this list of batsmen with most sixes per innings at the fourth position. He might not have had the best of times in the other two formats and has blown hot and cold. But KL Rahul, the T20 batsman has been phenomenal.

In fact, he averages 43.95 in the shortest format and is third on the list of best averages in T20Is (minimum of 20 innings) behind Virat Kohli (50.28) and Babar Azam (53.72). However, Rahul has a better strike-rate (149.23) than both of them. Time and again, he has proved his ability in the shortest format. He is one of the only two batsmen who have scored two T20I centuries while chasing.

The Karnataka opener might’ve played only 24 innings till date, but he’s already struck 41 sixes. This puts him fourth on this list with sixes per innings ratio of 1.70.
