5 players who have hit the most sixes in IPL history

#4 David Warner

Let us sidestep from the ball tampering issue for a fleeting second and focus on David Warner the batsman.

Yes, he has his many fallacies, but when it comes to wielding the willow the diminutive southpaw is as good as anyone currently.

He strides out to open the innings and more often than not walks out with the match in the bag.

In 114 innings, the New South Welshman has peeled off 160 sixes but sits higher than Kohli owing to a higher strike rate which reads a handsome 142.13.

There is little doubt that the game and the league will miss a fantastic player and Sunrisers Hyderabad will have to do without their talisman at the top this season.
