When it comes to T20 cricket, the final over is what makes it count. A team might play well𓆏 throughout theꦺ 19 overs, but one over of bad cricket can still make them end up on the losing side, and vice-versa.
The shortest format of t🐎he game has given additional weightage to the art of finishing. Over the vast history of T20 cricket, many have provided impactful per⛄formances during the 20th over of the tournament.
Let’s have a look at the three batsmen who have the best strike-rates during the 20th over in T20 cricket:
3. David Miller
The 30-year o༒ld South African middle-order batsman is a renowned cosmopolitan when it comes to franchise cri♏cket.
The Natal-born cricketer has served Kings XI Punjab for a remarkable tenure, before being released before the auctions last year. Other clubs Miller represents include Hobart Hurricanes, Jamaica Tallawahs, Winnipeg Hawks, and Durban ဣHeat.
Miller strikes the ball at a phenomenal strike rate of 227.35 during the 20th over, largely coming while setting scores for the opposition. The♛ T20 giant holds an impressive tally of 495 fours and 300 sixes in all T20 matches.
2. Jean-Paul Duminy
JP Duminy (227.64) carries only a marginal strike rate above Miller ✨during the ultimate over of🎶 the innings.
The former South African limited-overs batting mainstay at the middle or💫der has played for various teams for IPL, including the Delhi Daredevils, Mumbai Indians, and Delhi Daredevils.
Much like Miller, most of his heroics in the 20th over have come while batting first and setting targets. Duminy has smashed 463 boundaries and 221 maximums in glitter🍎ing T20 career.
1. Rohit Sharma
The Hitman holds the record for the highest strike rate during th꧙e final over in T20 cricket, wi🦋th his whopping tally of 269.56.
His abilities to finish games of cricket was🔴 displayed recently against New Zealand where he hiℱt the final ball for a gigantic six to seal India’s win in a Super Over.
Most of the🎉se runs have come while donning the jersey of Mumbai Indians. Unlike in t𝔍he Indian side, Rohit comes at number four position, holding the responsibility to anchor the innings through death.
Over✤ the years, Rohit has accumulated a massive 763 fours and 361 sixes in his majestic T20 career.
