#4 Mumbai Indians

Jos Buttler has struck 42 boundaries and is Mumbai Indians’ leading big-hitter so far in the season

Mumbai Indians have in their ranks, international top-quality batsmen like Jos Buttler, Rohit Sharma, and Kieron Pollard who enjoy hitting the big sixes. However, it is their find of the season, Nitish Rana, who has hit the most number of sixes so far.

The left-hander has struck 17 sixes in 10 innings. Jos Buttler is second on the sixes chart with 15 of the biggies.

Parthiv Patel might not have the biggest built, but he compensates this by cracking plenty of shots along the ground. The diminutive left-hander always starts quickly with a flurry of boundaries and unsurprisingly has hit 32 fours - the most numbers of fours in this season for Mumbai Indians.

On a whole, Jos Buttler has struck 42 boundaries and is Mumbai Indians’ leading big-hitter so far in the season. MI are fourth on this list of big-hitting teams with 962 runs in boundaries. With a total of 71 sixes, they also lead the top 5 big-hitting teams in terms of numbers of sixes hit.
