<p>

#3 Sachin Tendulkar – 69 sixes

<p>

Sachin Tendulkar was much more than just a batsman. He literally carried the Indian batting line-up for a number of years in all formats. Be it Test matches or One-Day cricket, Tendulkar was the pillar of the Indian batting line-up.

With Tendulkar playing a staggering 200 Test matches you would expect him to feature in this list of Indian batsmen with most Test sixes. He holds the record for the most fours () in Test cricket and is ranked 17th on the most sixes list (3rd for India). He has scored a staggering 15921 runs in Test cricket and has 51 Test centuries.

He had the ability to play both spin and pace very well. He could pull and cut superbly and thus, that helped him score a lot of runs against quality pace attacks on fast and bouncy pitches. Against spin, he used his feet and the depth of the crease superbly.

Tendulkar didn’t have the biggest of bodies, but he could hit some long sixes and thus, ended with 264 sixes in international cricket (with 69 Test sixes).
