IPL 2022: 10 longest sixes in the history of IPL
IPL 2022 has also witnessed a couple of towering hits from the batters
5. Chris Gayle – 119 mtrs
When speaking about the biggest sixes, one can not drop Chris Gayle off the list. Gayle has the most number of sixes in IPL history. Tailormade for the shortest format of the game, Gayle has struck a record number of 357 sixes in the IPL, the most ever by any player.
The fifth-longest six to feature in this list is hit by none other than Universe Boss. In 2013, he unleashed a 119 meter six against Ashok Dinda of the now-defunct Pune Warriors India. Gayle had a successful stint as an opener with Royal Challengers Bangalore before his transfer to KXIP (now known as Punjab Kings).
That inning against the Pune Warriors India is undoubtedly the greatest T20 knock ever played. Chris Gayle went on to make several records during that unbeaten 175-run knock. He single-handedly destroyed the bowling attack of the Pune team and made it rain sixes at the Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bengaluru.
