Highest score in T20 international cricket by player 2023

As of June 2023, Aaron Finch of Australia was the male cricketer with the highest score in Twenty20 international cricket. The right-handed batter scored a record-breaking 172 against Zimbabwe in July 2018.

Twenty20 records

Considered the most dynamic and fast-paced form of the sport, Twenty20 cricket often sees huge boundaries and explosive displays of batting. The fastest century scored in men’s Twenty20 international cricket is jointly held by three batters, who all managed the feat in just 35 balls. Among those players is India’s Rohit Sharma, who is one of the most successful T20 batters of all time, achieving over 3,800 runs for his country. This total is bested only by his teammate, Virat Kohli, who has amassed over four thousand runs for India in Twenty20 internationals.

King Kohli

Virat Kohli is widely heralded as one of the best batters of all time. He is the all-time leading run-scorer in men's Twenty20 World Cups, with over 1,100 runs to his name at an impressive average of 81.50. However, he has yet to claim a T20 World Cup title, with India’s only success so far coming in the 2007 tournament, three years before Kohli’s T20 debut. Alongside his impressive T20 stats, Kohli also sits in fifth place in the ranking of leading men's One Day International run-scorers.
