5 players with most sixes per innings in T20Is

#2 Chris Gayle

Chris Gayle

103 sixes in 52 innings (1.98)

Which list of sixes is complete without the name Christopher Henry Gayle? It’s no surprise that the big Jamaican makes this list but the only surprise would be that he is on No. 2 and not No. 1. Chris Gayle is one of the most destructive batsmen in T20 cricket and will arguably go down as one of the greatest players of the shortest format.

The big Jamaican has scored over 1600 runs in T20Is, scoring 13 fifties and 2 hundreds. But it is his six-hitting ability that makes him special. He can tonk the ball miles and can dent the bowler’s confidence within minutes. The 103 sixes that he hit in the shortest format are the joint most by a batsman in T20Is. But it’s his sixes per innings ratio which makes him stand out. That ratio is 1.98 and is the second best.
