Chris Gayle is the Only Challenger for Sub Continental Players in ICC world T-20s


Sri Lanka will host the 4th ICC World T-20 from September 18th September. We present a Statistical analysis of Performance of Players during the past 3 world Cups. Chris Gayle is the only Batsman to feature in list of most runs, Highest Score and Best Strike Rates in ICC World T-20s. It is Surprising that all the Bowling and Batting records are dominated by subcontinental players in ICC World T-20s so far.

In 3 World Cups so far, Sri Lankan Skipper Mahela Jayawardene head the list for most run getters in world t-20s with 615 runs in 18 matches.
