Most 50+ scores as captain in T20Is

ViratKohli, Kane Williamson and Aaron Finch have shown the way among T20I captains with most half centuries. 12 ViratKohli The five-match T20I series between England and India played entirely at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad was a spectacle. The series began with crowds but had to be reverted behind closed doors due to the rising numbers of COVID-19 in Gujarat.

Be that as it may, there was some quality cricket on display, with the better team taking the trophy home. Part of the reason why India were able to achieve the victory was due to the brilliance of ViratKohli who struck 231 runs from 5 matches at an average of 115.50 and a strike rate of 147.13.

He has now taken his tally of runs in T20I cricket to 1502 runs as captain from 45 matches. Kohli has struck 12 half centuries on the way, with the best of 94 not out.

11 Kane Williamson Williamson is next in line. The New Zealand skipper has 1383 runs from 49 T20I matches as captain for New Zealand. He has struck 11 half centuries at an average of 31.43 and has the best of 95.

10 Aaron Finch Australian skipper Aaron Finch has made 1462 runs in T20 cricket as captain which is the second highest behind ViratKohli. He averages 37.49 as captain in the format from 44 matches and has the best of 172.

Finch also has 9 half centuries to his name and is a crucial player for Australia in white ball cricket.

9 Eoin Morgan Eoin Morgan has been the architect of England's success over the last few years in white ball Cricket. The English skipper has scored 1322 runs as captain of the England team with 9 half centuries. He has the best of 91 and has scored his runs at an average of 29.38 as captain.

8 Faf du Plessis Faf du Plessis has retired from test matches and is only available for white ball games for South Africa. He is currently eyeing back to back T20 World Cups.

The former South African captain has scored 1273 runs for the country from 40 matches as captain at an average of 37.4. He has scored one century, his best of 119, and 7 half centuries as captain. If South Africa hope to do well in the upcoming T20 World Cup, du Plessis will have to play a major role.
