Former Sri Lankan captain Mahela Jayawardene is at the numero uno spot when it comes to scoring the most number of fours in the history of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup.

However, his days at the top are numbered, as the legendary Virat Kohli is on the brink of overhauling the Sri Lankan maestro.

Kohli, who is set to feature in the upcoming ICC Men’s T20 World Cup in the West Indies and the United States of America, has hammered 103 fours in just 25 innings across the past five editions.
