5 players who have hit the most sixes in IPL history

#1 Chris Gayle

The flamboyant Jamaican and self-appointed Universe boss is perhaps the biggest superstar in this format.

With his flashy mannerisms and delightful stroke play, Gayle has won several IPL games on his own and has managed to command jam-packed stadiums all over the country.

After having being a loyal servant for the Royal Challengers Bangalore over the past seven years, he now moves north and will ply his trade with the Kings XI Punjab.

In 100 innings, Gayle has whacked an unbelievable 265 sixes, well few strokes are not whacks, but mere flicks, to be honest, such is his power and six-hitting ability.

Also, he has scored 3626 runs at an average of 41.20 and with a strike rate of 151.20.

And yes, along the way he has smoked five centuries for good measure.
