IPL 2022 has also witnessed a couple of towering hits from the batters
The power-hitting players in IPL allow the fans to enjoy the game as they want to see some long sixes from their favorite players. In the last season, Ruturaj Gaikwad smashed a 108-meter six, which was the longest of the season. Some other big hitters like KL Rahul and Kieron Pollard were also able to hit sixes as long as 100 meters.
The fast pace of the game, coupled with some staggering and gigantic sixes hit by the batters, is enough to get any cricket fan excited. The majority of us viewers watch the IPL because of the batters. The teams have a stunning line-up filled with world-class players. Some are power-hitters, and spectators can expect raining sixes in every match. Since the tournament's inauguration, the IPL has witnessed great knocks from players, including some monstrous hitting.
It seems wholly appropriate that a player nicknamed "Hitman" finds his way into the list of longest sixes in IPL history. This strike came at a venue renowned for creating records in white-ball cricket, The Wanderers Stadium in Johannesburg. The shifting of IPL from India to South Africa proved to be a treat for the batters as the grounds there, were batting-friendly, and many records were made in that season.
While Rohit finds himself at the opening position these days, he used to bat at No. 5 for the now-defunct Deccan Chargers back in 2009. He smashed this massive six of 115 meters to the former Bangladesh captain Mashrafe Mortaza, who was playing for KKR. This effort of Rohit Sharma snatched the match from the clutches of Kolkata, who nearly won the match before the last over.
The Chargers went on to win the title that season. Rohit Sharma scored 362 runs that season in 16 matches at an average of 27.84 and a strike of almost 115, including a half-century.
