England and Indian batsmen lead the ICC World Test Championship (WTC) in most sixes hit. Launched in 2019, the WTC is a two-year league involving nine Test teams, culminating in a final between the top two. Designed to add significance to bilateral Test series, it has encouraged result-oriented matches, reducing draws and showcasing batsmen’s power hitting, especially from England and India.
Daryl Mitchell – 34 Sixes
New Zealand’s middle-order batsman Daryl Mitchell ranks fifth on the list of players with the most sixes in the ICC World Test Championship, having hit 34 sixes. A reliable and consistent performer for the Black Caps in Test cricket, Mitchell has admirably filled the role left by Ross Taylor. Over 27 matches, he has accumulated 1,856 runs at an impressive average of 44.19.
Yashasvi Jaiswal – 40 Sixes
Yashasvi Jaiswal has made a remarkable start to his Test career, scoring over 1,800 runs in just 20 matches at a stellar average of 54.25. He has notched five centuries, including two double hundreds. In only 37 innings, Jaiswal has smashed 40 sixes, placing him fourth in the ICC WTC’s list of most sixes.
Rohit Sharma – 56 Sixes
India’s captain Rohit Sharma, who retired from Test cricket in May 2025, transformed his career after being promoted to opener in 2019. He quickly established himself as one of the finest openers of his generation and also took over the Indian Test captaincy. During 40 ICC WTC matches, Rohit has hit 56 sixes, making him the second-highest Indian six-hitter and third overall globally.
Rishabh Pant – 62 Sixes
Known for his fearless and aggressive style, India’s left-hander Rishabh Pant ranks second on this list. His explosive batting has often changed the course of Test matches. Despite missing over a year of Test cricket following a car accident in December 2022, Pant has already struck 62 sixes in the ICC WTC.
Ben Stokes – 83 Sixes
England’s Test captain Ben Stokes leads the ICC WTC sixes chart by a considerable margin, with 83 sixes in 54 Tests. Stokes has spearheaded the Bazball revolution with his ultra-attacking approach, bringing a new level of excitement and entertainment to England’s Test cricket and the longest format overall.
