In the shortest format of the game, power-hitting is one of the most necessary skills for the batters. If a batter can’t hit sixes, they find it hard to keep their place in the team. Over the years, a lot of world-class batters have smashed a lot of hits over the boundary. Without further ado, let’s look at the players who have hit most sixes in the Indian T20 League.
