Most Sixes in ICC World Cup 2023
1- Rohit Sharma- 17 Sixes
Rohit has smoked as many as 17 sixes and 33 fours in 5 matches and most of them are when the ball is new and moving in the air. He is also present in the top-3 of the players with the most runs in the World Cup 2023.
The skipper is leading from the front. His early attack puts the opponent into complete backfoot and makes it a bit easy for the Indian middle order to win the match. He has scored a total of 311 runs at an average of 66 in the 5 innings.
2- Quinton de Kock- 15 Sixes
Another opener at the top with 15 sixes. Quinton de Kock took Bangladesh by storm last night when he smoked 174 runs with the help of 15 fours and 7 sixes. He took a sleep in the most sixes ranking from 9th position to 2nd in an inning.
With his 174, he is now at the top of the most runs tally with 405 runs. He averages over 80 in the 5 innings of this World Cup.
3- Heinrich Klaasen- 15 Sixes
South Africa’s strength is their in-form middle order and their hilarious ability to finish the game by pulling out the maximum momentum towards them and the man behind it is Heinrich Klaasen. Klaasen struck 8 sixes the last night in his 90-run knock which took him to the 3rd rank of most sixes.
It is definitely not easy for any batter to come 5th or 6th at the square and punch down the ball that hard. He has recorded 15 sixes till now surely going to add more numbers to it.
