The International League T20 is quickly becoming the home to dominating cricket action. This league promises fast-paced action that will entertain the cricket audience both in the stadium and at home, watching from their screens. This tournament typically begins in December and commences in late January.
In recent times, ILT20 has gained considerable recognition for being a power-hitting tournament. With flat decks, short boundaries, a heavy presence of overseas stars, and a fast outfield, ILT20 has become a favorite place for power hitters.
In these power hitters, Nicholas Pooran holds the record for the highest All-time batting strike rate. Pooran, who played for the MI Emirates from 2023 to 2025, scored 1,010+ runs with an all-time strike rate of 170.19. Sherfane Rutherford comes in second in the list of top ILT20 career strike rates of all time. He, during his time with the Desert Vipers and Abu Dhabi Knight Riders from 2023 to 2025, scored 480+ runs with an all-time strike rate of 161.0. The West Indies legends, Andre Russell and Kieron Pollard, have also secured their place in the top 10 ILT20 career strike rates of all time, with strike rates of 152.0 and 151.0, respectively.
