The Universe Boss, Chris Gayle, is the King of Sixes in franchise cricket in India, hands down. Gayle is placed a country mile ahead of the rest on top of the table with a mindboggling 265 maximums in his tally.

Even though Gayle is at the twilight of his career, this record of Gayle would be hard to topple for the likes of Raina, Kohli and Rohit. Gayle’s brute force would be eagerly anticipated by KXIP fans this time around.

Here’s a look at the Top 10 six-hitters in IPL history
