Most 6s by a batsman in IPL history

Modified Mar 19, 2019 13:21 IST

#4 Suresh Raina – 185 sixes

Suresh Raina could well be termed as ‘Mr IPL’. In the past 11 seasons, there hasn’t been a single edition in which Raina hasn’t scored 350 runs. In fact, he mustered under 400 runs in just two seasons (2015 and 2016) in his IPL career.

He has been the flagbearer of the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) for nine years and when they were banned, he continued his prolific run for the Gujarat Lions. Raina is the highest run-getter in the history of the game. Having scored 4985 runs at an average of 34.37, the Uttar Pradesh left-hander could well become the first man to scale 5000 runs in IPL cricket.

Moreover, he has scored 185 sixes so far in his IPL career. He is fourth on the list of the batsmen with most sixes in the IPL. He is also the most capped IPL player as he has featured in 176 games and has barely missed a game or two in the history of the league.
