India’s limited overs captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni is on the verge of breaking another record in One Day Internationals.
The 35 year-old batsman is only four sixes short of eclipsing none other than legendary batsman Sachin Tendulkar's record of scoring the most number of sixes for India.
Looking at the list of players with most sixes in ODI history, India's Captain Cool is currently positioned at No. 6 with 192 sixes from 275 ODIs.
Tendulkar (195 sixes from 463 ODIs) is currently India's leading six hitter and is placed at fifth position among international batsmen.
Former Pakistan captain Shahid Afridi is leading in the list of hitting most sixes in ODIs. He has hit 351 sixes in 369 innings.
Known as a finisher for India, Dhoni has hit sixes at a phenomenal rate as compared to the Indian run machine Tendulkar, who mainly played conventional strokes.
India will be hosting New Zealand for a five match ODI series in October and Dhoni can be expected to break Tendulkar's record during the series and become India's top six hitter in ODI cricket.
