Will Saurabh Ganguly world record be broken?

Former India captain Sourav Ganguly has a world record to his name, which no one has been able to break so far. Indian explosive all-rounder Hardik Pandya is on the verge of breaking his great record. Hardik can do this by playing just one match. Actually, to do this, Hardik Pandya needs to play in the Champions Trophy to be held next year. If he plays in this ICC tournament, he will have a chance to break Ganguly's world record. Interestingly, Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli are behind Hardik in the race to break Ganguly's world record.

Rohit-Virat is also behind

The Indian cricket team led by Rohit Sharma won the T20 World Cup 2024. Now the team's eyes are on the ICC Champions Trophy to be held next year. India has not been able to win this tournament since 2013. In this tournament, Hardik Pandya is targeting a world record of Indian legend Sourav Ganguly, which even Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli are behind him in the race to break. Actually, Ganguly is the batsman who has hit the most sixes in the Champions Trophy in the world. Hardik Pandya is very close to breaking his record.

Ganguly record will be broken!

Ganguly played his last Champions Trophy tournament in 2004. Since then, this ICC event has been organized 4 times, but his world record of most sixes is still unbeatable. Ganguly has hit 17 sixes in 13 Champions Trophy matches. If Hardik Pandya becomes a part of this tournament in 2025, then he can break Ganguly's record. Hardik has hit 11 sixes in the 5 Champions Trophy matches played so far. He needs only 7 sixes to leave Ganguly behind. With the ferocious style in which Hardik bats, he can do this feat in just one match. Rohit Sharma (8 sixes) and Virat Kohli (8 sixes) are also behind him.
