Which Players Hit The Longest Sixes In IPL?

With its high-scoring matches and explosive sixes, the Indian Premier League (IPL) has completely redefined T20 cricket. Hitting sixes has become crucial in T20 cricket, both for entertaining fans and for making fast runs. These days, every team looks for power hitters who can win the game with a few clutch hits. Many hard-hitting hitters have wowed audiences by hitting some incredible sixes during the past 17 seasons. Furthermore, the presence of power hitters who can knock massive sixes with ease adds interest to competitions like the Indian Premier League. Fans find it exciting, and it gives the opposing bowler and teams a fear of losing. 

Players With The Longest Sixes In IPL History

Nothing in the IPL’s fast-paced environment gets the fans going like the Longest Sixes in IPL. These massive shots that soar beyond the boundary perfectly capture the excitement and amusement that T20 cricket is known for. Fans all across the globe love six-hitting because of the tremendous strength, timing, and daring needed to knock the ball out of the park. Moreover, the frequency of sixes struck in the IPL is increasing with each season, and batsmen are taking greater chances to score huge runs. When it comes to six-hitting, records are always being broken. And with good reason - batsmen are growing more powerful and daring by hitting incredible maximums.

Albie Morkel’s 125-Meter Six in IPL 2008

In the inaugural season, Albie Morkel established the record for the longest six in IPL history. Morkel hit a massive 125-meter six off Pragyan Ojha's delivery while playing for the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) against the Deccan Chargers. Even after sixteen seasons, his record has not been surpassed. He is really the only player in the IPL to reach the 125-meter barrier, making it one of the most epic cricket highlights in IPL history. Fans still remember Morkel's blazing blow against RCB, when he scored 28 runs off an over from Virat Kohli. 

Praveen Kumar’s 124-Meter Six in IPL 2011

The second-longest six in IPL history is held by Praveen Kumar, who made an unexpected entry to the list. He is more known for his bowling, but when he played for Punjab Kings against the Mumbai Indians, he stunned spectators by hitting a 124-meter six. The ball flew far away after Lasith Malinga's delivery, which resulted in this six. 

Adam Gilchrist’s 122-Meter Six in IPL 2011

One of the best international hitters in the IPL, Adam Gilchrist, hit a 122-meter six for the Punjab Kings against the Royal Challengers Bangalore. Gilchrist, who was well-known for his powerful swing, blasted a Charl Langeveldt delivery flying over the mid-wicket area. He already predicted the bowler's slower one and quickly decided he had to send the ball out of the beautiful Dharmashala stadium. Then, over midwicket, he performed one of his trademark flips. The ball not only crossed the ropes but also exited the stadium and probably ended out on the plains.  

Robin Uthappa’s 120-Meter Six in IPL 2010

Dwayne Bravo has been one of the Indian T20 League's most accomplished and effective death-overs bowlers over the last 15 years. However, he was hit by one of the most powerful blows in the history of the competition. In the 2010 season, Robin Uthappa hit the fourth-longest six in IPL history, measuring 120 meters. In a match against the Mumbai Indians, Uthappa, who plays for Royal Challengers Bangalore, smashed a big six off a ball from Dwayne Bravo. At the Wankhede Stadium, Robin Uthappa spotted a length ball on the stumps early and whacked it so hard that it vanished into the crowd.

Chris Gayle, Yuvraj Singh, and Ross Taylor’s 119-Meter Sixes in IPL

Chris Gayle, Yuvraj Singh, and Ross Taylor are the three players who have reached the 119-meter milestone in IPL history. In a 2013 match against Pune Warriors India, Gayle accomplished this feat while playing for Royal Challengers Bangalore by hitting Ali Murtaza for a six that flew over the roof at Chinnaswamy Stadium. When the Punjab Kings played the Chennai Super Kings in 2009, Yuvraj Singh smashed his 119-meter six. He dispatched a long-on delivery from Albie Morkel. In 2008, while playing for Royal Challengers Bangalore, Ross Taylor hit a six off Jacob Oram that was 119 meters long and sent the ball over the deep mid-wicket boundary.

RR vs KKR: IPL 2024 Expected Lineup, Live Toss, 100% Prediction & Which Team Will Win?

Match Preview

This coming Sunday, match number 70 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) will take place at the Barsapara Stadium in Guwahati. The event will feature the Rajasthan Royals (RR) competing against the Kolkata Knight Riders.

After securing a spot in the playoffs with 16 points, the Royals have begun to struggle at the business end of the campaign, as they have lost four matches in a row. On the other side, KKR (19 points) have already secured a top spot in the standings after a washout against the Gujarat Titans in Ahmedabad in the previous round earned them one point. This has allowed them to secure their position as the top team on the table.

 

RR vs KKR: Pitch Report

Barsapara Cricket Stadium

This is the thirteenth venue of the season, marking the highest number in an Indian Premier League season. With side limits of 63 metres and 60 metres and a straight boundary measuring 73 metres, this location has historically been a relatively high-scoring event. The pitch that we are playing on is made of black earth, and it is hard and rolls really well. "Certainly a surface on which a great number of runs can be scored," Deep Dasgupta and WV Raman remarked before the match between RR and PBKS, which was the last match ever played at the stadium and also the first match ever played there.

In spite of the fact that the pitch has a few fractures, it normally plays far better than it seems to. In the previous year, the team that batted first won both of these games. However, in a match between India and Australia that took place at this venue, Australia chased a massive score of 222 in the last over. This is something that teams want to accomplish because, while they are pursuing it, they are under pressure. They continued by saying, "There are a lot of runs to be had here, regardless of when you bat on the pitch."

RR chose to bat first in the match, and they ended up scoring 144/9 in 20 overs (overs). It was the pacers of PBKS who took six wickets, while the pacers themselves took two wickets. In response, Punjab was able to knock down the goal in 18.5 overs, losing five wickets in the process. There were three wickets taken by RR pacers. During the last five Twenty20 matches, the average total score has been 182 runs. Over the last five years, teams that won the toss have chosen to bowl first 61 percent of the time.

Fantasy Cricket tips to guide your success!

Craving fantasy cricket glory? Here's the cheat sheet to smashing sixes on your leaderboard! First, ditch the "all-star" trap. Prioritize in-form players over big names, especially those thriving on current pitches. Analyse weather and venue – a bouncy track favours power hitters, while spin reigns supreme on dry, low pitches. Balance is key – stack your batting with top-order monsters and sprinkle in wicket-taking bowlers, both pace and spin. Don't underestimate the bonus points! Pick bowlers likely to grab early wickets or complete overs, and capitalize on bonus categories like catches and stumpings. Finally, trust your gut! Research is crucial, but sometimes a player's on-fire form whispers opportunity. So, channel your inner Nostradamus, pick wisely, and watch your fantasy team dominate the pitch! Remember, these are just tips, so go forth, experiment, and unleash your fantasy cricket prowess!

Check Out The Lowest Team Totals In IPL

In the Indian Premier League, bowlers have sometimes surpassed hitters despite the league's reputation for rapid scoring and big runs. Over the 16-year history of the competition, bowling attacks have destroyed star-studded batting lineups. The notorious record for the lowest score in IPL history belongs to Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB). When they were eliminated for just 49 runs in 9.4 overs against the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) at Eden Gardens on April 23, 2017, they smashed the previous record of 58 runs set by the Rajasthan Royals against the RCB itself in Cape Town in 2009. The lowest IPL 2024 total was that of the Gujarat Titans. The lowest score GT has ever had in IPL history was just 89 runs in 17.3 overs. Rashid Khan was the top scorer with 31 runs. Furthermore, in 2.3 overs, Delhi's Mukesh Kumar grabbed 3/14. Let's see which is the lowest score in IPL ever.

Royal Challengers Bangalore - 49 runs (vs Kolkata Knight Riders, Kolkata 2017)

As far as IPL scores go, Royal Challengers Bengaluru holds the record. At Eden Gardens in 2017, RCB made the lowest score in IPL against the Kolkata Knight Riders and went on to make history. With 131 runs in 19.3 overs, KKR won this low-scoring match. The score was below average, despite RCB being the favorites going into the chase. Prior to the match, RCB was the overwhelming favorite, and the score was below average. However, the second inning was even worse. As the KKR bowlers dominated the RCB, no batter reached double digits. RCB lost the game with just 49 runs in 9.4 overs. Kedar Jadhav was their top scorer with nine runs.

Rajasthan Royals - 58 runs (vs Royal Challengers Bangalore, Cape Town 2009)

Just nine runs short of the lowest-ever IPL total, the Rajasthan Royals made the second-lowest team overall. When they participated in the 2009 competition against Royal Challengers Bengaluru, they had it. It was only the second game of the season in Cape Town. To start things off, RCB won the toss and batted first. RCB likewise got off to a sluggish start, scoring only three runs from their top three. They reached 133/8 in 20 overs with 66 off 48 from Rahul Dravid. Rajasthan was knocked out for just 58 runs in 17.1 overs, with leg-spinner Anil Kumble taking a wicket for just five runs in 3.1 overs. Except for Yusuf Pathan, Tyron Henderson, and Yusuf Pathan, who each scored 11, none of their batters reached double digits. Rahul Dravid won the game by 75 runs thanks to his 66 off 48 deliveries, earning him the title of Man of the Match.

Rajasthan Royals - 59 runs (vs Royal Challengers Bangalore, Jaipur 2023)

The third-lowest cricket score in IPL history occurred during the 2023 season. The season's 60th game between the Rajasthan Royals and Royal Challengers Bengaluru took place in Jaipur. In IPL history, the 2023 season had the third-lowest score. The 60th game of the season was contested in Jaipur between the Rajasthan Royals and Royal Challengers Bengaluru. Batting first, RCB reached a challenging 171/5. While attempting to score, both RR openers were unsuccessful. Only Shimron Hetmyer (35) and Joe Root (10) reached double figures, and without Hetmyer, the Royals may have had the lowest IPL total ever. Despite just playing 10.3 overs and scoring 59 runs, they were defeated by 112 runs. Wayne Parnell's three overs saw him take three wickets for 10.

For IPL All Time XI Kumble snub AB de Villiers for MS Dhoni

AB de Villiers is among the most destructive batsman in the history of Indian premier league. He was in royal challengers Bangalore since 2011. Because of his wonderful performance in the premier league RCB reached new heights. He broke several records in the tournament while playing along ViratKohli. He is among the best T20 players in the world because of his amazing performance.

At the legends launch when it was asked from players such as Chris Gayle, Suresh Raina, Robin Uthappa, Anil Kumbleetcthat who they will pick in their all time IPL XIs. In response to this Anil Kumble said that it is quite difficult for him to pick AB de Villiers in his team. Further on he said that he look at the impact a particular player has in term of winning matches.

Despite the fact that complaints of not choosing AB de Villiers, experts settle for both MS Dhoni and AB de Villiers. Eventually in the end Kohli replaced Sehwag and become part of the playing XI

More clarification on Dybowski's position within Ice Pick Lodge today from IPL ex-employee Luchin, after yesterday's comments.

Sorry for posting so much in the patho tag, but unfortunately it's what's best for visibility. I have, and will be, using the "Dybowski Allegations" tag for any post on this, so please block that tag if you don't want to see it.

Since my post yesterday on Alexey Luchin's comments/allegations against Dybowski, he has given Reddit some updates and clarifications. I'll summarise the Reddit thread, but quote Luchin in full for transparency.

The thread is on the topic of Dybowski's current involvement with IPL/Pathologic 3. Commenters stated that he has sold the company, and hasn't been very involved with the games since The Void (2008). Whether this is a valid interpretation of Luchin's earlier statements was discussed, and the fact that he's been a main P2 writer and involved with a lot of promo stuff over the years was brought up. Luchin, after being pinged, showed up to clarify:

Russian companies often use a "fake owner" for various reasons, this is the case here. Motivations may be to avoid alimony, to ease money transfers between the main company part in Kazakhstan and the original main company and it's Cyprus subordinary. It is not illegal, and even not a loophole, though. I wouldn't dwell on that much. It's important what people work in the studio factually.

and,

Yep, I'd say it's up to the currently employed to shed light reliably. But in general around after the Void he was more of an broad ideas guy — and a good one, it wasn't my intent to downplay him in that regard. At the same time, game development is a multistage process, and from my personal knowledge, I can attribute a lot of the new games qualities to "fresh blood", and the other co-founders acting more professional. E.g. Alphyna has covered a decent chunk of actual writing on Pathologic 2 and had a pivotal role in maintaining the timeline of events of the game, charater motivations, etc together. Ivan Slovtsov carried the detailed game design and balancing with his team — which gave him a good position in tinyBuild after, etc. IPL is to some extent an autere game company, with the source and numerous modifications coming from Nikolay, but in my time his input was irregural, disrupting, and in my personal opinion wasn't often for the good of the game. At the same time, the fresh blood in the studio grew on the principles on which the studio was founded and successfully carries its legacy already. This is an opinion, though, still. Personally, I'll still play Pathologic 3, it's great, from what I know / have seen. And all my posts here are done with a heavy heart — it's not easy to be dissapointed in a talanted figure such as Dybowsky myself.

So, based on this (keep in mind Luchin himself has stated to have no contact with Dybowski himself since 2018, although it feels fair to assume he'd still be in contact with other former coworkers) the exact role of Dybowski in the creation of these games seems a little unclear. But I also don't think anyone's been debating whether he's been involved up until p3, as much as how deeply involved he is in p3.

Ultimately, it's up to everyone to decide for themselves where they stand in terms of opinion on p3, buying the game, sticking around in the fandom, supporting the studio, et cetera., but that's the new info.

To just give my own personal two cents: I am still in the position I was yesterday, which is that I believe IPL has to make a statement on all of this, and cut ties with Dybowski, before I'll be completely comfortable giving them money. However, I do also want to acknowledge the fact that this is not a black and white situation, and that the discourse surrounding this does warrant some level of nuance. I'm, of course, speaking in relation to the other people working at IPL.

It's incredibly easy to say both, "Dybowski is not his team; they should never be punished for his actions," and "they may have helped cover for him for twenty years; they should be held responsible." Silence is, to a degree, complicity, and if Luchin is to be believed not just in his "open secret" statement but also here, in reference to the student grooming allegations:

That's the Nema-Soda episode around the same time previous accusations surfaced. Well known in the Russian segment of the internet.

That's bad. If this truly has been this out in the open and known, that's really fucking bad, and I want this company - at least its management - to be held responsible for their potential silence and complicity in this.

But, at risk of sounding like I'm excusing any of this, I do also want to remind you that according to Luchin, as well as earlier testimonies including Renata's, this is also a person who is apparently incredibly vindictive. He is also pretty rich by Russian standards, and has held some level of influence in academia and the Russian game dev community for many years. I don't know exactly how his vindictiveness would take its form, especially not against employees, but I've been in toxic workplaces before - it can be scary, downright terrifying, to go after or even up against someone like this. No matter how shitty they are, especially if you're not in a country with good whistleblower laws (and just, in general, a system which will take the original allegations seriously, which... I'm not Russian, but I'm allowing myself some possibly problematic doubt that you'd be able to comfortably know that. I come from a significantly more progressive country, and I would absolutely not take it for certain) it can be incredibly difficult to stand up for what's right and take that risk to your livelihood, safety, and future job prospects. Especially in a job market so (relatively) niche as Russian game development. I'm also pretty damn sure there's not a union, or anything like it, to back you up if you get inofficially retaliated against.

Human being end up in abusive situations and find themselves, for one reason or another, not doing anything about it all the time. SA victims don't always report their perpetrator. Fraud victims don't always come forward. People subjected to wage theft don't always call their union reps. And others, those who witness it, don't always do it either. Sometimes because it's not their place, sometimes because they don't care, and sometimes because they're afraid. I don't think it's fair to assume everyone is in the second category, just as how I wouldn't think it's fair to assume everyone is in any of the others - it'd be absurd to assume every IPL worker doesn't want to out someone else's victimhood, which is why they haven't said anything publicly, for example. However, not reporting is an incredibly common blame to put on a victim or witness, because it's assumed that by not reporting it, they're essentially enabling the perpetrator to do it again. And I personally just don't think that's just - not without knowing what else weighed into a person's decision not to speak up.

I'm not saying this absolves all of IPL. I especially don't think it absolves the people at the top with Dybowski, who would have been more protected than the bottom-line workers. I simply am asking for some honest-to-god nuance. Personally, I'm still not happy to give IPL any money - not until I know Dybowski is not getting any of it, and measures have been taken to protect their other employees. But I'm also not interested in broad brushing an entire company of twenty years as evil, because the employees haven't made (english) publically available attempts at getting this guy out. We know, by his own accord, Luchin didn't - we know nothing of the others. A conversation with a manager that went badly is not likely to become public knowledge. People lamenting their powerlessness to stop someone to their colleagues or friends won't reach us. Someone quietly resigning because they can't do this anymore, but not being willing to put themselves on the line, is not a detail we're going to have.

I'm happy the silence has, hopefully irrevocably and undeniably, been broken. I'm hoping some people, Dybowski in particular, will face justice, or at least consequences. I hope Renata and her son, as well as Dybowski's other children, are safe and happy. I hope that IPL will do something, and move forward as a better company.

I want them to make a statement about this. That's non-negiotiable, for me, personally. I also want to see a change, and a better company with a better work culture going forward, making games and nurturing a community safely away from all this shit.

However, I accept the grim possibility that this will never happen, and am trying to decide on what that means for me personally moving forward with the fandom. I don't have any moral qualms about piracy, that's not what this is about. And that's the wider conversation I think I personally will need more, moving forward, in regards to my relationship with Pathologic.

That's my two cents.

Today we say the most sincere words to our loved ones - those who have been with us all year, those for whose support we work, strive and achieve our goals. We’re grateful to everyone who cares about the studio and those who have been with us all along the way.

[intellectual6666]

Today, the IPL started. Me and my friend, who visited our house today, were sitting on the bed and talking about the new RCB Jersey and how we were missing Virat Kohli and MSD in the tossing round. Then suddenly, the national anthem started and we jumped out of our bed, stood infront of the tv and sang it in a whisper along with my ma. That is when I realised that this is my last time singing national anthem with her, like this. Everyday, we used to do the prayer and anthem in our school. As our class 10 is over, she changed her school. We have been friends for 11 years. So when this realisation hit me, my eyes filled up with water, fighting to come out. I controlled it. We won't be singing it like this anymore, we are getting older. But anyways, this is what life is.

This is us today
