Top T20 World Cup records that could be broken this time: The T20 World Cup 2024 is to be played from June 2 under the hosting of USA and West Indies. If we look at the history of this tournament which started in the year 2007, then many tremendous records have been made and broken. In this edition, there will be some such records which can be broken and the players will have a chance to achieve big achievements.

In this article, we are going to mention 5 such major records of T20 World Cup history, which can be broken in the ninth edition.

These are the top 5 T20 World Cup records that can be broken this time

1. Most fours

In the eight editions of the T20 World Cup, the feat of hitting the most fours so far has been achieved by Sri Lanka's Mahela Jayawardene, who has now retired. This legendary right-handed batsman has hit 111 fours in the tournament, which is the most. However, this time his record can definitely be broken, because after him in second place is India's Virat Kohli, who has hit 103 fours so far. In such a situation, Kohli will have to hit only 9 fours to break Jayawardene's record. At the same time, Rohit Sharma (91) and David Warner (86) will also have a chance.

2. Fastest century

The record for the fastest century in the T20 World Cup is held by West Indies' Chris Gayle. Gayle has scored centuries in 47 and 50 balls in the tournament and has occupied the top 2 positions. Recently, many batsmen have scored explosive centuries in T20 Internationals and have used very few balls. In such a situation, it should not be surprising if the record for the fastest century is broken.

3. Most catches as a fielder

The record for taking the most catches as a fielder in the history of the tournament is held by South African legend AB de Villiers. De Villiers has taken 23 catches. Australia's David Warner is in second place with 21 catches. In such a situation, Warner will have a chance to overtake de Villiers by taking 3 catches.

4. Most runs in a single edition

For the first time, a record 20 teams will participate in the T20 World Cup 2024. Till now only 16 teams were seen but now the number of teams has increased. In such a situation, a team can play a maximum of 9 matches in the upcoming edition, due to which the batsmen will also have a chance to score a lot of runs. The highest number of runs in a single edition is recorded in the name of Virat Kohli, who scored 319 runs in 6 matches in the tournament played in 2014. However, this time his record may be broken due to more matches or he may break his own record.

5. Australia has a chance to win all ICC trophies together

Last year was tremendous for Australia. The Australian team won the World Test Championship and the ODI World Cup 2023 under the leadership of captain Pat Cummins. At the same time, now the team will also be seen in the T20 World Cup 2024. If they are successful in winning the tournament, then they will have the opportunity to become the first team in history to win the ICC trophy in all three formats of the game at the same time.
