7. Thisara Perera: Sunrisers Hyderabad (14 Sixes)

Thisara Perera

The story of Thisara Perera and Yusuf Pathan in 2013's IPL is similar to a certain extent. Like Yusuf, Perera too used to come at the latter part of the innings to score some crucial runs in the form of boundaries. But unlike KKR, Sunrisers Hyderabad enjoyed a decent tournament, thus all the responsibility did not fall in the youngster's hand and he used to play his shots freely.

He hit a total of 14 sixes, most of which came in big chases. He didn't have a big innings to show against his name, but those were as important as Shikhar Dhawan's fifties and Amit Mishra's economical spells.

6. Aaron Finch: Pune Warriors India (16 Sixes)

Aaron Finch

Pune Warriors India didn't have the kind of a farewell season that they would have been hoping for. Finishing the tournament at number 8, they had the most forgettable stint in IPL. Despite having some good T20 players like Yuvraj Singh, Steve Smith and Robin Uthappa, the team couldn't capitalize on the star power.

They are remembered for sixes that year, but not in the way they would have liked. PWI conceded the most number of sixes in 2013 and most of them came from the bat of Chris Gayle, who scored 17 sixes in one inning alone.

Aaron Finch hit the most number of sixes (16) for them, but they were scored in tandem and he found it difficult to take benefit from his hitting power. He provided the start to his team by transferring the pressure to his oppositions by those big shots in the power play but rarely found his foot in the middle overs.
