5 batsmen with the highest strike-rate in T20 World Cups

4. AB de Villiers- 143.40

AB de Villiers isn’t someone, who would allow the bowlers to settle into a rhythm. The former South African batsman knows the art of maneuvering the field with ease and hence, churns out runs without much fuss. He also prefers to keep the scoreboard ticking, which can be comprehended from his strike-rate of 143.40 in the T20 World Cup.

In 30 matches, he has 717 runs at 29.87. Like Watson, even ABD has five half-centuries in the mega event. Back in 2007, the Pretoria-born got his highest score of 79* against Scotland at the Kennington Oval in London.

However, it’s his 28-ball 69* in 2014 against England, played at a strike-rate of 246.42 that remains to be his most impactful knock. When De Villiers finds his rhythm, even the best of bowlers finds it tough to stop the carnage.
