Who Hit the Most Sixes in the 20th Over in IPL History? MS Dhoni Tops the List

MS Dhoni has most sixes in the 20th over in IPL history.

Within T20 cricket, the final overs, often referred to as ‘death overs,’ epitomize mercilessness as batters relentlessly attack bowlers, showing no leniency.

And when it comes to the Indian Premier League, considered one of the finest and most competitive T20 cricket leagues globally, the pressure falls squarely on the bowlers, far more than on the batters.

In this article, we look at the top five batters, or finishers, who have made their mark by hitting the most sixes in the 20th over throughout IPL history:

1. MS Dhoni

When it’s down to the wire in the 20th over, nobody does it better than the legendary ex-CSK skipper MS Dhoni. He’s slammed a total of 64 sixes in that pressure-cooker situation.

2. Kieron Pollard

And just trailing behind is ex-Mumbai Indians star all-rounder Kieron Pollard, notching up a solid 33 sixes in the final over.

3. Ravindra Jadeja

Chennai Super Kings’ all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja clinches the third spot, hammering 29 sixes in the 20th over.

4. Hardik Pandya

Following closely at number four is the current Mumbai Indians captain, Hardik Pandya, with 28 sixes in the final over.

5. Rohit Sharma

And rounding up the top five is Rohit Sharma, also from Mumbai Indians, with a solid tally of 23 sixes in the final over.
