Indian captains with most runs in T20I series ft. Shubman Gill

From watching Virat Kohli bat as a skipper in the past to seeing Shubman Gill currently charge heavily against Zimbabwe, let’s take a look at Indian captains with the most runs in T20I series.

The Indian cricket team is currently on a high after winning the T20 World Cup 2024, where we witnessed many heroic performances. The leader of the troop, Rohit Sharma, worked his magic both as captain and with the bat. This is not the first instance where the Indian captain has led the team from the front, excelling in both roles.

In the ongoing series against Zimbabwe, Shubman Gill, who is leading the team, has stamped his name among Indian captains with the most runs in a T20I series, ranking third. Former skipper and run machine Virat Kohli still leads the chart with two powerful series stats. Take a look at all the Indian captains who have made the most runs for India in T20I series.

King Kohli leading the charts

Virat Kohli, the run machine who needs no introduction, has provided his services for the past 15 years. Recently, he, along with Rohit Sharma, retired from T20 internationals after winning the T20 World Cup. King Kohli has scored the most runs against his personal favorite, England, during the 2021 5-match T20I series, having 231 runs, making it the highest total by an Indian captain in a T20I series.

Also, Rohit Sharma, known for his aggressive batting in the initial overs of the game, also made his way onto the list by scoring runs against Sri Lanka, where he earned the nickname “Hitman” with two double centuries in ODIs. Also, Rohit has consistently scored heavily against New Zealand in T20I series.
