Six-hitting is something that can be practised and honed to perfection. For some players, it comes naturally to them to hit huge hits out of the park. Always, a balance must be ensured in the playing XI so that the team would suit all conditions. On that note, here, we take a look at the list of three teams with the best six-hitters in IPL 2024.
1) Mumbai Indians
Back in the days of Hardik Pandya and Kieron Pollard, as well, Mumbai was a good six-hitting side. They still retain the same threat. The biggest threat of them all is Rohit Sharma, who is one of the best six-hitters in the game right now.
Hardik Pandya has arrived back to the franchises. He adds more depth in this regard. At GT, he was more subdued but at MI, we can expect to see him score more sixes. Tim David is a beast with the bat and can score sixes consistently. Suryakumar Yadav is not known as a six-hitter but he can do the job with his creativity.
2) Chennai Super Kings
CSK is led by MS Dhoni. In recent years, MS Dhoni’s strength has been his muscle power. He has been able to muscle many deliveries out of the park.
Shivam Dube is slowly becoming a serious six-hitter. He still has some scope to improve against pacers. Daryl Mitchell, though, is brilliant in this regard. Ruturaj Gaikwad, Moeen Ali and Devon Conway can also hit sixes consistently against favourable match-ups.
3) Rajasthan Royals
Rajasthan Royals is one of the teams with the best six hitters in IPL 2024. At the top of the order, Jos Buttler and Sanju Samson can demolish the opposition with their sixes. Yashasvi Jaiswal can do that, as well.
Shimron Hetmyer and Rovman Powell are known for their ability to hit huge sixes. Coming from the West Indies, it is one of the primary attributes they have.
