Rossouw holds the top spot with nine sixes, however, he will have no further chance to take the number further as South Africa are already out of the tournament.

When it comes to scoring the most 50 runs in the tournament, Virat Kohli and Suryakumar Yadav are at the top. Both have scored three runs each while KL Rahul has made it to the list with two 50 runs each. Iftikhar Ahmed (Pakistan), Glenn Phillips (NZ) and Najmul Shanto (Bangladesh) are the other batsmen in this category.
