Hitting sixes is no easy task for any player. It requires skill and technique to consistently do this. World cricket has seen famous sixes win games and the Asia Cup is no stranger to that. Harbhajan Singh smashing Mohammed Amir in 2010 drove India to victory and Shahid Afridi’s sixes off Ravichandran Ashwin in 2014 allowed Pakistan to win.
Shahid Afridi himself has hit the most sixes (26) in Asia Cup history. However, in fourth position sits Rohit Sharma (17 sixes). Rohit needs 10 sixes to become the player with the most sixes hit in Asia Cup and there is no doubting Rohit’s ability that this feat can’t be achieved this year. The scenario sits that if India bat first against Nepal, this could give Rohit the chance to close the gap.
Although the grounds are not confirmed yet, and that will play an important role in whether Rohit achieves the feat. Picking on two grounds, at the R. Premadasa Stadium, he has 3 sixes in 9 ODIs and 10 sixes in 12 T20Is, whereas at Pallekele International Cricket Stadium, he has 5 sixes in the 3 ODIs played there.
