Rohit Sharma
The thrill of the league stage of the Indian Premier League 2025 is at its peak. On May 26, when Mumbai Indians and Punjab Kings will face face to face at Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur, the eyes of both teams will be focused on finishing the top-2. Doing this will give an additional opportunity to make it to the finals. Gujarat Titans (18 points), Royal Challengers Bangalore (17 points), Punjab Kings (17 points) and Mumbai Indians (16 points) have already been cut off playoff tickets. Now there is a tough competition for the top-2 between these teams. The Punjab Kings are currently second in the points table with 17 points. If Punjab gets defeat against Mumbai Indians, it will slip to third or fourth place and then he will have to play the eliminator on 30 May.
Although all the players of Mumbai will be eyeing against Punjab Kings in Jaipur, but there will be more expectations from opener Rohit Sharma, who have been able to play only 5 and 7 runs in the last 2 matches. In such a situation, in the last league stage match of Mi today, the fans will have a big innings from the hitman. During this time there will also be a special record on Rohit’s target. If he is successful in hitting three sixes, he will become the first Indian batsman to hit 300 sixes in IPL history.
Till now only Chris Gayle has set 300+ six
So far, only West Indies explosive batsman Chris Gayle has been able to hit more than 300 sixes in IPL history. Gayle has a total of 357 sixes. Rohit’s name is currently 297 sixes. In such a situation, if his bat goes today, he will become the second player of the world and the first player of India to reach this point.
Batsman to hit the most sixes in IPL
- Chris Gayle – 357
- Rohit Sharma – 297
- Virat Kohli – 291
- MS Dhoni – 264
- AB de Villiers – 251
- David Warner – 236
Interestingly, in this special list, there is Virat Kohli just behind Rohit, who is just 9 sixes away from completing his 300 sixes this season. In such a situation, the war of sixes among the Indian batsmen in IPL 2025 will also be very worth watching.
