Players with the most sixes as captain in international cricket

1. Rohit Sharma (India) – 238 sixes

The Indian opener and captain in both the ODI and Test format, Rohit absolutely destroys the opposing bowling lineup with huge sixes when he finds his groove. His brilliant batting performances were crucial in leading India to the 2024 T20 World Cup triumph as well.

2. Eoin Morgan (England) – 233 sixes

The hard-hitting English captain led England to their maiden ODI World Cup title back in 2019. Morgan was the player on whom the England team relied on in tough situations. He was especially great for the Three Lions in the ODI and T20I format, both as a captain and as a batter.

3. MS Dhoni (India) – 211 sixes

Arguably India’s best captain and wicketkeeper in history, Dhoni wasn’t shy to smash the bowlers for fun either. The coveted Indian captain was also a hard-hitter of the ball and sometimes even played Test cricket like a limited over format and didn’t hesitate in decimating the opposing bowling attack.

4. Ricky Ponting (Australia) – 171 sixes

The Australian captain is arguably the most successful captain from his country which is a big feat considering how many great captains Australia have had throughout the years. Ponting’s signature pull shot used to be a joy to watch for any cricket fan. Though he was termed as more of a classy batter who generally dealt in boundaries, he wasn’t shy to score maximums either.

5. Brendon McCullum (New Zealand) – 170 sixes

The hard-hitting Kiwi batter was very well known to be a nightmare for the opposing bowling attack as he attacked them relentlessly with his aggressive and powerful shots. McCullum may not have been able to lead the Black Caps to any major titles but he certainly carved his name in New Zealand cricket folklore.
