IPL 2018: Six batsmen with maximum no. of sixes in IPL

#1 Chris Gayle (265 sixes, 101 matches)

Gayle has hit scarcely believable 265 sixes in 100 innings

The Caribbean Giant simply had to be on top of such a list. While all other batsmen are a safe distance away from 200 sixes in the IPL, The Six Machine has 265 sixes to his name and that too in just 100 innings.

Chris Gayle at his peak was a no-brainer retention. He would loot the morale of the opposition's bowling attack and force them to bowl at his strengths.

Even in this stage of his career, he is quite a force to reckon with. Playing for the Kings XI Punjab, the power hitter will have to re-define his IPL career after a dismal outing for the RCB last season.

If Gayle gets going, there is not much one can do as an opponent captain. After all, he is the "Universe Boss".
