Rohit Sharma On Verge Of Breaking 'This' Sixes Record In T20Is As Captain

In a much-anticipated T20I comeback, Indian opener Rohit Sharma is set to lead the national team in the upcoming T20 series against Afghanistan, marking his return to T20 Internationals since November 2022. The series, comprising three thrilling matches, is scheduled to kick off on January 11 at the Punjab Cricket Association Stadium.

Rohit Sharma's return to the T20 side presents a golden opportunity for the seasoned cricketer to make history. Rohit now finds himself on the brink of breaking a significant record – the most sixes in T20Is as captain. Having captained 51 matches, he is currently tied with Aaron Finch at 82 sixes. 

The only active skipper on the list, Rohit can surpass Finch if he manages to hit just five sixes during the IND vs AFG T20 series.

Former English skipper Eoin Morgan, who revolutionized white-ball cricket globally, currently holds the record with 86 sixes. However, Rohit Sharma has a chance to dethrone Morgan and etch his name in the record books.



In the context of T20I sixes as captains, the leader board boasts names like Virat Kohli with 59 sixes, Ramesh Satheesan with 61 sixes, and Aaron Finch with 82 sixes. With just a few sixes, Rohit Sharma can not only lead India to victory but also secure a personal milestone, surpassing his counterparts on the esteemed list.

As fans gear up for the IND vs AFG T20 series, all eyes will be on Rohit Sharma, the Hitman, as he aims to leave an indelible mark in T20I cricket and solidify his position as one of the most prolific captains in terms of hitting sixes.
