Most Sixes in IPL Innings

Most Sixes in IPL Innings is the ultimate benchmark for a batter's raw destructive power and boundary-clearing dominance, a record still held firmly by the "Universe Boss," Chris Gayle.

Gayle’s monumental performance in 2013 against Pune Warriors saw him smash 17 sixes in a single innings, a legendary feat that remains unsurpassed. He is followed by Brendon McCullum (2008) and Quinton de Kock (2022), who both registered 13 sixes. In the 2026 season, as batters increasingly adopt an "ultra-aggressive" approach, high-impact players like Abhishek Sharma continue to threaten this record. This statistic highlights more than just physical strength; it represents a player's ability to completely dismantle an opposition's morale and bowling strategy within a single session.
