The Indian team has batted brilliantly in the second test match against Bangladesh. Whichever player comes to the crease, it rains fours and sixes. Talking about Test cricket, now the Indian team has become the team to hit the most sixes in a year. Team India players have hit 90 sixes so far in the year 2024 and this number will increase further.
India performed excellently in the test
Earlier, England had the record of hitting most sixes in a Test match in a year. England players made a record of hitting a total of 89 sixes together in the year 2022. But now the Indian team has touched the figure of 90 sixes and has made this record in its name. It is also an interesting fact that Indian players have achieved this record in just 14 innings.
India is playing 'baseball' cricket
This year especially, Rohit Sharma, Rishabh Pant and Yashasvi Jaiswal are taking full advantage of their ability to hit long sixes. A year before England, India hit 87 sixes in 2021. Especially if we talk about England, the players of the English team are batting fast because of their 'baseball' mentality, but India has shown who plays real 'baseball' cricket.
Most test sixes in 2024
In the year 2024, India has created a historical record by hitting 90 sixes. Talking about the current year, England is second in the list with 60 sixes and New Zealand is third with 51 sixes. India still has 8 more Tests to play this year, so it is possible that the maximum number of sixes in a year may cross 100.
India broke its own record
Apart from scoring the fastest 50 runs in Test cricket, Team India has also broken the record of the fastest century. India crossed the 100-run mark in just 10.1 overs. The interesting thing is that Team India has broken its own record. India completed 100 runs in 12.2 overs against West Indies in the year 2023. Within a year, India broke this record again. At that time Team India had broken Sri Lanka's record.
