5 batsmen with the highest boundary percentage in ODIs in 2018

#2 Shikhar Dhawan (India)- 63.99%

While Rohit Sharma topped the list of six-hitters, it is his opening partner Shikhar Dhawan who takes the top honors on the fours' list. This year, the southpaw scored a total of 897 runs of which 574 runs were from boundaries (127 fours and 11 sixes.) Dhawan has been sacked from the Test side but remains to be one of the most dangerous opening batsmen in ODI cricket.

In 2018, the Delhi batsman averages close to 50 and has scored three centuries against three different oppositions. The best of the three came against India's arch-rivals Pakistan at the Asia Cup. Opening the innings for India, Dhawan and Rohit added 210 runs for the first wicket. Dhawan's 100-ball 114 ensured that India chased down Pakistan's total with more than 10 overs to spare.

Matches: 19, Runs: 897, SR: 102.28, HS: 127, 4s: 127, 6s: 11.
