Top 10 Six Hitters In T20 Internationals

Kindly switch to Landscape Mode for better viewing experience

Our Twenty Twenty International (T20I) ratings take into account all matches from the first T20I match on February 17, 2005 till the below mentioned last update date. Most of our ratings are dynamic, and as new matches are played, the rating of earlier batsmen may change if current batsmen set new benchmarks. Brief explanation of the ratings is given before each section (Detailed Explanation). So, here are the Top 10 batsmen with best Six Hitting Potential in T20Is.

*Note: All T20I Ratings are updated till 2025-02-15

THE CRITERIA


The SIX HITTERS Rating is divided into 4 main sections:-

CRITERIA STAT POINTS
Prolific Sixes Hit 200.00
Consistent Sixes/Inn 300.00
Attacking Balls/Six 300.00
Going Berserk Inns With Most Sixes 200.00
The Trend Setter (TS)

TS is the player who does the best in a criteria. The rating of all other players are calculated taking the TS as the benchmark. Know All About TS. Here is a simple example:-

  • TS Runs: 2,000; Player X Runs: 1,000; Section Points: 250.00
  • TS Points: 250.00(Max); Player X Points: Runs/TS Runs X 250 = 1,000/2,000 X 250 = 125.00
  • Ratings of all sections are calculated similarly with Runs being replaced by the Criteria Stat.
Top Teams (TT) and Non Weak Teams (NWT)

Some sections consider performances only against the top teams and non weak teams. Here is some information:-

  • Win/Loss Ratio is used to determine TT and NWT.
  • They are calculated by decades.
  • A batsmanโ€™s performace is counted in TT or NWT if it comes against that team in the specific decade.
  • Knock Out matches of T20 World Cup are also counted in TT.
  • TT and NWT may be found in the last section.
