10 Longest Sixes ever in Cricket

#6 Adam Gilchrist, 2011 IPL - 122 meters

Australia v Sri Lanka - Commonwealth Bank Series

Opened the batting for Australia in limited-overs format, Gilchrist has tormented bowlers in the past and struck more than 250 sixes in his international career. Batting for Kings XI Punjab in an IPL game Royal Challengers during the 2011 season, Adam Gilchrist hit the former South African seamer, Charl Langeveldt, for a huge six that travelled 122 meters in Dharamshala. It was a slow ball and Gilchrist picked it with brute force.

#5 Simon O'Donnell, MCG 1993 - 122 meters

This happened during a first-class game in Australia. In a Sheffield Shield match between Victoria and New South Wales in 1993, Simon O'Donnell hit Greg Matthews for a huge six that travelled to the third tier of the Great Southern Stand at Melbourne Cricket Ground. It was one of the longest ever hits in Australian grounds and it went more than 120 meters. A monstrous hit!
