IPL Maximum Sixes Award Winners 2024

The Indian Premier League (IPL) features the best players from all around the world who unleash their beast mode on the opposition. Over the years several destructive batters have graced IPL with their incredible power-hitting. They come out with clear intent of taking on the bowlers right from the word ‘go’ and smack them mercilessly all around the ground.

Sanath Jayasuriya finished with most sixes in the inaugural edition of the tournament in 2008 with 31 maximums to his name while Adam Gilchrist launched it into the crowd most number of times in 2009. Expectedly, Chris Gayle appears in the list most number of times i.e four. The southpaw topped the list in three consecutive seasons namely 2011, 2012 and 2013. 

The West Indian legend also holds the record for hitting most sixes in a season as he smacked 59 maximums in the 2012 season. His compatriot Andre Russell is second with 52 sixes in the 2019 season. 

Glenn Maxwell appears in the list twice as he finished with maximum sixes in the seasons 2014 and 2017 respectively. Robin Uthappa (2010), Virat Kohli (2016), Rishabh Pant (2018), Ishan Kishan (2020) and KL Rahul (2021) are the Indian players to appear on the list. In 2024, SRH opener Abhishek Sharma bagged the honour with 42 sixes in his breakout season.
