IPL 2026: Top 5 batters who smashed the most sixes in IPL history ft. Virat Kohli

Six-hitting has always been one of the biggest attractions of the Indian Premier League. From towering strikes into the stands to unforgettable last-over finishes, maximums have shaped some of the tournament’s most iconic moments. 

Over the years, several batting superstars have thrilled fans with their power and consistency, but only a select few have climbed to the top of the all-time sixes chart. As of IPL 2026, here are the top five batters with the most sixes in IPL history.

1. Chris Gayle: 357 Sixes

When it comes to power-hitting in T20 cricket, Chris Gayle remains the undisputed king. The former West Indies opener changed the way batting was viewed in the IPL, using brute strength and fearless intent to dominate bowling attacks. His record tally of 357 sixes keeps him comfortably at the top of the leaderboard. 

Gayle represented Kolkata Knight Riders, Royal Challengers Bengaluru, and Punjab Kings during his IPL career. From his unforgettable 175* for RCB to countless match-winning knocks, Gayle’s legacy as the league’s greatest six-hitter remains untouched.
