India’s Rohit Sharma will surpass Chris Gayle to take the lead among batsmen with the most number of sixes in Twenty20 Internationals if he hits four sixes in the first of two T20Is against West Indies here on Saturday.
In his career, Rohit has so far struck 102 sixes in 94 T20Is. Gayle tops the list with 105 in 58 outings.
Gayle is followed by Martin Guptill; the Kiwi has smashed 103 sixes in 76 matches.
Gayle to miss out
The 39-year-old Gayle will not get a chance to add to his tally as he will not feature in the three-match series. Gayle will, however, be part of the subsequent One-Day International (ODI) series.
