Rain of sixes was seen in the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024. In this tournament played jointly hosted by America and West Indies, the batsmen showed the real glimpse of the shorter format and entertained the audience a lot. The special thing was that this time there were not only big names in the list of hitting sixes, but also some new and less famous players.
Nicholas Pooran – West Indies
West Indies’ explosive batsman Nicholas Pooran left everyone behind by hitting the most number of sixes in the T20 World Cup 2024. Puran scored 228 runs in 7 matches and hit 17 sixes during this period. His strike rate was more than 146, which clearly shows his aggressive batting. Pooran’s innings proved to be a game-changer for West Indies on many important occasions.
Rahmanullah Gurbaz – Afghanistan
Afghanistan’s opener Rahmanullah Gurbaz also performed strongly in this tournament. He scored 281 runs in 8 matches and hit 16 sixes. Gurbaz’s batting proved that Afghanistan has now become a strong team not only in bowling but also in power hitting. His consistency was the great strength of the Afghan team.
Travis Head – Australia
Australia’s Travis Head has secured third position by hitting 15 sixes in 7 matches. Head’s strike rate was above 158, which shows that he scored runs quickly in every match. Head’s aggressive start in big matches put Australia in a strong position many times.
Rohit Sharma – India
Indian captain Rohit Sharma also did not lag behind in this list. He scored 257 runs in 8 matches and hit 15 sixes. Rohit adopted the attacking path from the very beginning of the innings and gave a fast start to India. His attitude as captain proved to be very beneficial for Team India.
Aaron Jones – America
The most surprising name in this list was America’s Aaron Jones. He hit 14 sixes and scored 162 runs in just 6 matches. Jones’ batting showed that even the allies are now making an impact on the big stage.
