Mumbai Indians batter Ishan Kishan leads the longest sixes race in IPL 2024, along with his 103-metre hit in opposition to Sunrisers Hyderabad on March 27 in Hyderabad. Kishan is adopted by Kolkata Knight Riders all-rounder Andre Russell who launched a 102-metres six in opposition to Sunrisers Hyderabad Eden Gardens in Kolkata on March 23.
The race for the most important six this IPL season continues to be hotting up with the likes of Heinrich Klaasen, Liam Livingstone and Shivam Dube more likely to enter the fray.
The IPL has witnessed the perfect six-hitters in world cricket unleashing a number of the greatest maximums ever struck in T20s throughout 17 editions. The IPL 2023 season was the most important six-hitting version of the Indian Premier League, with a whopping 1,124 sixes hit through the match. Faf du Plessis, the Royal Challengers Bengaluru captain, had emerged as the most important six-hitter with a 115-metre strike and in addition smashed essentially the most sixes within the season (36).
Chennai Tremendous Kings’ Albie Morkel struck one of many greatest sixes within the inaugural season in 2008. Apparently, Morkel’s 124-metre most was equalled by Praveen Kumar in the identical season – the 2 stay on the high of the listing even after 16 editions.
