With the invent of T20 cricket, batsmen have started hitting the balls right from the first over leaving them with opportunities of scoring big runs. This year also saw cricketers scoring runs on a consistent basis in the shortest format; however, the list of batsmen scoring most fifties in T20I is headed by South Africa’s Hashim Amla with three fifty-plus scores in six innings.
