Top 10 longest sixes in International Cricket

1. Shahid Afridi, Pakistan (vs South Africa, 2013, ODI) – 153 m

It should come as no surprise that Shahid Afridi owns the record for the longest six hit in international cricket because his name consistently ranks at the top of lists like these. Because of the distance it travelled, the six he hit off Ryan McLaren is one of the longest sixes in cricket history.

Shahid Afridi managed to record a six in Johannesburg that travelled 153 metres, despite the fact that many claim it did not go that far. In the 35th over of the run chase, McLaren bowled a length ball, which Afridi viciously smashed out of the Wanderers for the largest six of the entire game.

Former Pakistani captain Afridi was thrown a length ball by McLaren, and he smashed it over the stadium's roof. Afridi, who formerly held the record for the quickest ODI century, hammered 88 runs in just 48 balls while chasthe South African cricket team's enormous 344 total. However, Pakistan lost the game by 34 runs.
