Now this is elite territory. Hitting six sixes in an over in any format is insane—but doing it in the IPL, with the world watching? That’s legendary.
So far, here's the truth:
💣 Players Who Have Hit Six Sixes in an Over in the IPL
👉 NONE.
Yep, as of now, no player has officially hit six sixes in a single over in an IPL match.
😲 But Wait — The Closest We've Seen:
🔥 Ravindra Jadeja vs Harshal Patel (2021)
-
Match: CSK vs RCB
-
Jadeja smashed 37 runs in an over (6, 6, N6, 2, 6, 6, 4)
-
That’s not six sixes, but still the most runs ever in an over in IPL history.
⚠️ The "no-ball six" makes it technically possible to score more than 36 in an over!
⚡ Chris Gayle, Kieron Pollard, Andre Russell
These guys have threatened six sixes often.
-
Gayle has hit 17 sixes in a single IPL innings (record).
-
Pollard once hit 6 sixes in 6 balls in a T20 (but not IPL).
-
Russell’s strike rate says he might do it any day now.
🏏 Who’s Done It in Other Matches?
Just for context:
-
Yuvraj Singh – 6 sixes in an over vs England (2007 T20 WC)
-
Kieron Pollard – 6 sixes in an over in a CPL match (2021)
-
Herschelle Gibbs – ODI vs Netherlands (2007)
-
Gary Sobers & Ravi Shastri – In first-class cricket
🧨 Final Word:
The IPL is still waiting for that perfect over.
With hitters like Russell, Rinku, Livingstone, Stubbs, or SKY, it could happen any season.
⚠️ Keep watching—it’s not a question of if, but when.
