Top Ten sixes cricket history
So today we will talk about who has hit the longest sixes in the world. The good news for you Pakistanis is that if we talk about the top 10, then there is a Pakistani at the ten position and a Pakistani at the first position.
Let’s start from number 10 to number. Ajaz Ahmed was in 1997. India was in front. He spins the ball and hits the ball so far that he hit the biggest six of that time, that is, 114 meters long, no one had hit a six so long till then. Crossing the boundary of Karachi Stadium was also a big deal, but he hit the ball so long that it seemed that it would go out of the ground and not stay in the ground. So, this 114-meter six of Ajaz Ahmed was the biggest six
.
then comes Universe Mass, meaning Chris Gayle. Then India is in front, and Chris Gayle spins the ball and hits the ball so long on the oval field that when measured, it becomes 116 meters. That is, Chris Gayle set the record for the longest six in 2010, that too against India.
.
We will talk about India at number eight. But this time, India is not one of those who get hit by sixes, but one of those who hit sixes. His name is MS Dhoni. Dhoni had such power that he could even make the ball that did not even hit his bed properly go out of the boundary. And the ball that hit his bed had to go back in the air. It was New Zealand in front year was 2009. MS Dhoni hits his longest six, which is a full 118 meters.
If we talk about number seven, then it is India and here too the six hitter is India, and his name is Yuvraj Singh. It was 2007. It was Australia. Greatly had the ball in his hand. Yuvraj had the bed in his hand. Then he spins the bed and when the ball comes out of the bed, it falls 119 meters away and all the spectators sitting there are surprised that this Barckley hit the six, how did it feel? But the hitter was Yuvraj Singh.
Then we came above number six. Australia said, “Enough is enough. We have hit such a long six. Now we will hit a six.” The year was 1997. Then New Zealand was in front. The Australian batter was Mark Waugh. He hit a six of 120 meters inside the crease.
Then we talk about the top five. We have been hit with a long six. We will not give up. We will also set a new record. Then Corey Anderson was in front. Then India was in the hand of the bat. The year was 2014. The length of the six was 122 meters. Now India had hit such long sixes and had hit them.
Then Pakistan said, “Now it is our turn. Pakistan comes to bowl. And England’s batter is Livingston. He is in front. The year is 2021. It is a fresh thing. And the six is hit of 121 meters. Now inside this whole story. No one is mentioning the name of South Africa, so we will mention the name of South Africa in the top 10. South Africa has not hit a six, they have conceded a six, and that too from Martin Guptill. The year was 2012 and the length of the six was 127 meters.
Now we go to number two, and at number two there is a guy who was said to have a shot like a bullet. I mean, Brittley is in front in 2005. West Indies is in the hands of Brittley, and it seemed that this wicket of Brittley is flying and flying, but Brittley spins the bed, sits on the middle and then people raise their heads and look at the sky, the ball is flying, then the wall falls after covering 143 meters
Then we will talk about the number one Shahid Khan Afridi, the star of Pakistan, Shahid Afridi. In 2013, And the bowler who comes after him may challenge Afridi. Maybe Afridi may not like it a bit, but the world was in a state of flux. What could he do? Maybe Afridi is leaving the field, and the umpire says, “Stop, this is too much because he has bowled no balls, and he has gone beyond the line.” And when people go beyond the line, whether they are mistaken or South African bowlers, they are not forgiven. And if Pakistan is in front, then they are not forgiven at all. Afridi comes back and tells the bowler, “Great, put on some perfume.” And then Afridi probably sits down and spins the car and the whole world is surprised that someone can hit such a long six. You know that in the history of the world, we have bowled the fastest balls, and Pakistanis have bowled them. The longest six in the world, a 158-meter six, has not been hit by us either, and 158 meters is such a record that if someone like Mike were born and hit it correctly, then it would be known because Afridi has probably set this record, and now it seems impossible to break it.
