Most Sixes As Captain In International Cricket

An aggressive opener and skipper of the Indian cricket team, Rohit Sharma recently surpassed Eoin Morgan to become the captain to hit the most sixes in international cricket. In 124 matches at the helm, he has smashed 234 sixes where most of the sixes came in the shortest format.

Former English leader, Eoin Morgan whacked 233 sixes in 198 matches across formats during his regime, the second most sixes in international cricket as a captain. The Southpaw batted in the middle order and had the range-hitting skills, helping him to score at a higher rate.

Former Indian wicket-keeper batsman, MS Dhoni gets third place on the elite list of most sixes as captain in international cricket with 211 maximums in 332 matches. His ability to step out against the spinners and smack the seamers in the slog over made him one of the greatest six hitters of all time.
