Can you hit a six over 150 meter? If there is one man, who can say yes to this question, it has to beChristopher Henry Gayle.The man who was forced to leave the field due to irregular heartbeat in Melbourne on Nov 17 2005, has been a nightmare to all the bowlers across the world ever since his resurrection. Here are the some of the monstrous 6sthe man with 2 triple tons has hit.
#5 105m vs Australia
Awesomeness at its peak!. Gayle takes on Brett Lee at the 2009 ICC World T20, one of the most memorable moments in cricket.
#4 111m vs KXIP
Another ball goes out of the stadium after hitting the willow. Abhisekh Nayar was the victim this time!
#3 112m vs New South Wales
The stage was setup for a grand semi-final between Royal Challengers from Bangalore and New South Wales at the Chinnasamy Stadium. NSW has set an improbable target of 204 in 20 overs. But nothing is impossible when this big man is on song! Gayle scored 92 off 41 balls including EIGHT 6s. This time it was Pat Cummins. A six over long-on for 112m.
#2 119m vs Pune Warrior India
It is the Chinnasamy Stadium in Bangalore again. Storyline remains the same. Gayle storm hit Pune Warriors this time. He smashed 175 runs in just 66 balls, the highest individual score in IPL. It was the 3rd ball of the 15th over from Ali Murtaza, and Gayle sent the ball out of the stadium for a 119m long six.
#1 120m vs Queensland Bulls
This match was Chris Gayle’s final appearance for the Warriors before he joined West Indies team for a ODI series against Sri Lanka in 2011. Chris Gayle launched a 120m six to the 3rd tier of the stadium. That is indeed a monstrous hit!
Gayle does not usually dance down the wicket against bowlers, but on this occasion he did.
