don_corleone840 Posted April 22, 2010 Share Posted April 22, 2010 at the moment in world cricket? Uthappa Pollard Yousuf Pathan Personally, I think its between Pathan and Uthappa. Pathan does not stay long enough but both hit sixes at will it seems. Uthappa really hits the ball a long way though. Most of his sixes are close to 100 metres and the one that hit the roof in the group stages could have travelled well over 100 metres had it been measured. I know guys like Morkel and Kemp probably can hit it further but the guys above seem to do it more freely. I think the biggest six in the IPL this year is Kemp followed by Dhoni. But Morkel hit one on the roof on a biggish ground against Rajasthan and hit the very top of the roof in another match and it was travelling a lot further had it not been stopped in its tracks. :band: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vvvslaxman Posted April 24, 2010 Share Posted April 24, 2010 In terms of prolific six hitting McCullum is at the top. But you have to take into consideration that their grounds are roughly of the size of public toilet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vvvslaxman Posted April 24, 2010 Share Posted April 24, 2010 It also depends on the role they play also depends on the type of players they are. If you strictly go by fours you will see a different list Tests Clarke 21 innings 133 fours 3 sixes Viru 11 innings 131 fours 12 sixes Watson 18 innings 130 fours 6 sixes Katich 21 innings 128 fours 3 sixes Cook 23 innings 121 fours 2 sixes ODIs Watson 35 innings 160 fours 28 sixes Ponting 30 innings 128 fours 19 sixes Dilshan 14 innings 110 fours 7 sixes Tendulkar 16 innings 109 fours 9 sixes T20s Dilshan 11 innings 59 fours 5 sixes Sanga 12 innings 44 fours 7 sixes McCullum 12 innings 43 fours 15 sixes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
