Carrying the reputation of being the man responsible for scoring the fastest fifty along with the fastest hundred in international cricket, AB de Villiers, on his given day, can easily gobsmack this record. As often termed as Mr 360 degree, De Villiers is well known for towering gigantic sixes for the men in red. The legend probably has every shot in his book and that’s the reason why he can become an ordeal for bowlers once he gets going.

In the IPL, ABD has, overall, smashed the second most number of sixes (235) and maintains a strike-rate of over 150 since the 2012 edition. Also perhaps being a vital cog for RCB, the South African cricketer has also scored more than 4,800 in the tournament.

As an RCB fan one would be vigorously expecting ABD to fetch this record under the franchise’s name as often their team has been the one facing a similar kind of situation at the other end that too on the trot. Also on a general note, with AB perhaps having every possible gear when it comes to combating the bowling, watching him hit six sixes will then become the cherry on the top.
