As we are heading towards the Super 12 stage of the <a href="https://www.crictracker.com/t20-world-cup/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">T20 World Cup 2022</a>, the excitement of cricket fans is rising with every passing day. The tournament has provided several moments of joy to cricket fans all around the world with numerous blockbuster contests.

Since the inception of the T20 format, hard hitters have played a vital role, so any laxity from bowlers becomes an opportunity for batters to plunder them by hitting long sixes. In the quickest format of the sport, batters do not shy from taking risks to smash maximums.&nbsp;

In 2007, when the first T20 World Cup was played in South Africa, cricketers such as Yuvraj Singh, Chris Gayle, Misbah-ul-Haq, Matthew Hayden, and Adam Gilchrist delivered some action-packed scenes to fans. These cricketers by opening their arms to hit long sixes not only notched up runs for their teams but also guaranteed the success of the T20 format among fans.&nbsp;

Here's the list of batters who have hit some of the longest sixes in T20 World Cup history:

In the sixth match of the T20 World Cup 2022, UAE were playing Sri Lanka. Both teams after losing their respective first matches were playing against each other in a battle to advance to the Super 12 stage.

Chasing 153 to win, UAE lost nine of theirbatters for a score of 56. But on the second delivery of the 17th over, Junaid Siddique did something which stupefied everyone. The cricketer known for his right-arm medium fast bowling smashed a maximum that went 109 metres away.

Although UAE got eliminated from the tournament by losing the game against Sri Lanka, the side still had a lot to celebrate with plenty of positives from the match. Earlier, Karthik Meiyappan’s hat-trick in the first innings of the match impressed everyone and later Siddique’s six was no less than a moment to rejoice for the UAE team as the latter turned out to be the 5th longest six in T20 World Cups.

The blazing shot from Junaid was received with surprise and awe as the followers of the sport were not expecting the tailender to setup such a record.

In the 18th game of the first edition of the T20 World Cup in 2007, Pakistan were locking horns with Australia. Chasing 165, the Men in Green were four down for 46 but then it was the right-handed batter Misbah-ul-Haq who took Pakistan home with his scintillating 66 runs. <a href="https://www.crictracker.com/cricket-news/their-tummies-are-visible-they-cant-move-misbah-ul-haq-lashes-out-at-pakistan-players-fitness-levels/?q=misbah" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Misbah</a> decorated his innings with eight boundaries, including a gigantic six of 111 meters.

In the nineteenth over of the game, Nathan Bracken was holding the ball for Australia to defend the total, but with just 13 required off 12 balls, it was just a matter of time for Pakistan batters to wind up the game.&nbsp;

On the third delivery of Bracken’s over, Misbah took Pakistan within touching distance of the total by clearing the stands. Until today, Misbah's maximum is the fourth longest six in the history of T20 World Cups.

When it comes to smashing huge sixes, the absence of West Indian batters from the list is almost unlikely. In T20 World Cups, followers of the game have witnessed the ability of&nbsp; West Indian batters to play monstrous strokes. From Chris Gayle to Carlos Braithwaite, every batter has had the ability to clear the ropes easily but when it comes to sending it to the farthest, <a href="https://www.crictracker.com/cricket-news/andre-russell-no-longer-in-the-plans-of-west-indies-selectors-for-the-t20-world-cup/?q=andre+russell" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Andre Russell </a>seems to be winning the battle.

Contesting against Australia in a Super 12 match of the T20 World Cup 2021, West Indian batters were struggling to amass runs against Aussie bowlers, but with the arrival of Andre Russell at the crease, things changed as the big man played a cameo of 18 runs off just seven deliveries by thrashing two sixes, with one of them becoming the third-most colossal maximum in T20 World Cups.

In the last over of the West Indies innings, Russel turned out as a threat for Aussie pacer Mitchell Starc as the right-hander known for butchering bowlers wreaked havoc on the speedster by hitting two sixes on the last two deliveries of the innings. His six on the penultimate ball went a mind-boggling 111 meters away.

His ability to smash sixes effortlessly makes him one of the most dangerous batters in the shortest format of the game. While playing against South Africa in T20 World Cup 2021, the right-handed English batter showcased his power hitting ability by striking bowlers mercilessly.

While facing South Africa’s prime bowler, Kagiso Rabada, Livingstone smacked him for two massive sixes. One of the hits that went over square leg covered a distance of 112 meters, and shattered the record of Russell’s maximum of 111 meters, struck in the same edition against Mitchell Starc of Australia.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

With the jaw-dropping six, Livingstone currently stands at no two on the list of hitting one of the longest sixes in the history of the event.

In the first edition of the T20 World Cup in 2007, <a href="https://www.crictracker.com/social-tracker-cricket/humbled-to-have-a-stand-named-after-me-yuvraj-singh-expresses-gratitude-to-punjab-cricket-association/?q=yuvraj" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Yuvraj</a> played a key role in helping India lift the trophy. With his match-winning knocks, he paved way for India’s victories in the competition. In the same edition, the left-hander also showed that hitting long sixes in T20 is just a cup of tea for him.

Against England, his record of the fastest-ever half-century in T20Is, with help of six sixes in an over hit the papers. But his crucial 70 run-knock off 30 balls against Australia in the semi-finals of that edition holds a special place in the record books as the Southpaw in that game registered the record of hitting the longest six in the history of T20 World Cups.

Facing the Australian spearhead Brett Lee on the last delivery of the tenth over, Yuvraj smashed Lee’s delivery over square leg, which cleared the stands and became the largest maximum of the tournament by covering a distance of 119 meters. India with his heroics sealed the match by defeating the Men in Gold and Green by 15 runs.&nbsp;
