Most hat-tricks of sixes in international cricket

[Bhaijaan]

Pandya seems to have a knack for it.

Did it twice vs Pakistan in CT’16 final
Did it vs Sri Lanka in test match
Did it today against NZ

Any stat of who’s done it the most number of times?

 

[jnaveen1980]

He has equalled ABDV

 

[superman]

What abt 4’s Babar did 3 hts today

 

[Madplayer]

Babar hit 3 fours in 3 balls 3 times in this match.

 

[Joginder_Sharma]

Babar hit 3 fours in 3 balls 3 times in this match.

That's a mindblowing stat, 36 runs off 9 balls.Well done to him.

 

[a_tahir]

What abt 4’s Babar did 3 hts today

That's a world record

 

[Slim]

What a meaningless stat

 

[jnaveen1980]

His 149 against windies

45.6
6
Holder to de Villiers, SIX runs, full on the stumps and it sails away again! Now it's the record for most sixes in an innings by a South African in an ODI. Straight back over the bowler's head this time
45.5
6
Holder to de Villiers, SIX runs, around the wicket, full just outside off, de Villiers slog sweeps it over deep midwicket and there it is!! The fastest ODI century. What an incredible knock
45.4
6
Holder to de Villiers, SIX runs, steps across the stumps and lifts a six over backward square again, bowler misses the yorker again and gets punished once more

Same innings

41.5
6
Holder to de Villiers, SIX runs, fuller length, slapped down the ground, hasn't got this at all, is long-on going to get there? No! It falls over his head over the rope, the thin air took that for six
41.4
6
Holder to de Villiers, SIX runs, length on off stump, smashed down the ground and into the stands!! There's the record. A gorgeous clean strike over long-off, such timing
41.3
6
Holder to de Villiers, SIX runs, steps across the off stump and lifts a full toss over backward square leg, another incredible shot, so far across off and helps it into the stands


So far i could find 2 such instances for ABDV. not sure about the other instances But someone said he did 4 times

He also hit 3 consecutive sixes of Zampa in 1st ODi in 2017

 

[Bhaijaan]

He also hit 3 consecutive sixes of Zampa in 1st ODi in 2017

Oh yes!!!

Make that 5 instances then.

Who’s done it more?

 

[jnaveen1980]

He also hit 3 consecutive sixes of Zampa in 1st ODi in 2017

spot on

6
Zampa to Pandya, SIX runs, Quicker and flatter on middle, it does not matter. Pandya still clears his front leg and clouts it straight of long-on who is in the deep now
36.4
6
Zampa to Pandya, SIX runs, Bang! bang! bang! A hat-trick of boundaries. Pandya clears long-on and brings up his fifty off 48 balls. Floated up on middle, Pandya unleases the smoothest of swings and sends the ball over the boundary
36.3
6
Zampa to Pandya, SIX runs, Pandya tees off! Tossed up on middle, Pandya loves the flight. He gets under it and hoists it down the ground. The ball soars over long-off. Whoa! That hit the roof

That is 5 times then.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Oh yes!!!

Make that 5 instances then.

Who’s done it more?

Two records you could check out is Afridi, Jayasurya. Virtually nobody else could have done 5 times.

 

[Bhaijaan]

What a meaningless stat

It is quite meaningless but is always quite a spectacle.

 

[Abdullah719]

Babar hit 3 fours in 3 balls 3 times in this match.

Four times.

0.1, 0.2, 0.3
1.3, 1.4, 1.5
4.1, 4.2, 4.3
9.2, 9.3, 9.4

 

[jnaveen1980]

Four times.

0.1, 0.2, 0.3
1.3, 1.4, 1.5
4.1, 4.2, 4.3
9.2, 9.3, 9.4

Sehwag probably has that in tests lol

 

[jnaveen1980]

It is quite meaningless but is always quite a spectacle.

Yes. He backs himself big time to hit 3rd six. Even here lined Astle up beautifully with a cross bat stance.

 

[Hyperion66]

Pandya is one of the most impactful players in the world today, when he fires we win.

 

[Haroon786]

Afridi, Gayle or Sharma probably have the record.

 

[Finisher]

I Wouldn't be surprised to see Pandya hit 6 sixes in a over against a spinner, against fast bowling is a different story.

 

[jnaveen1980]

In local tournament he made 39 runs in one over against a seamer

[Hawkeye]

Four times.

0.1, 0.2, 0.3
1.3, 1.4, 1.5
4.1, 4.2, 4.3
9.2, 9.3, 9.4

That is amazing.

 

[IAJ]

When he fires you win? Do you remember..rehney dou

 

[mastersaan10]

Pandya is perfect for team India, on his day he destroys any spinner. He can bat against pacers as well but the day he can destroy them like spinners, he will be .

 

[jeeteshssaxena]

Yuvraj did it 4 times.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Pandya might get a partner in crime soon. SHivam Dubey another massive six hitter.

[jnaveen1980]

Yuvraj did it 4 times.

In one dayers? Don't think so This is an unique pattern. In T20 6 sixes tha tmeans twice in the same match. Then he smashed Ajmal for 3 sixes in a row once. Not sure about 4th. Those are T20. Not ODI.

Yup in t20s.

 

[Joseph Gomes]

Gayle has probably done it more than dozen times in T20

 

[Oligochaetes]

5 Times in Total

New Zealand v India, 5th ODI, February 3, 2019, Wellington

46.2 Astle to Pandya, SIX, short on middle, and Pandya pounces on the opportunity to launch one over midwicket

46.3 Astle to Pandya, SIX, full outside off, goes inside out over extra cover, not only bisecting the boundary riders but clearing them comfortably

46.4 Astle to Pandya, SIX, that's three in a row! Full on middle, right in his arc to pick it up over midwicket. A throwback to some of his hitting in the Champions Trophy

India v Australia, 1st ODI, September 17, 2017, Chennai

36.3 Zampa to Pandya, SIX, Pandya tees off! Tossed up on middle, Pandya loves the flight. He gets under it and hoists it down the ground. The ball soars over long-off. Whoa! That hit the roof

36.4 Zampa to Pandya, SIX, Bang! bang! bang! A hat-trick of boundaries. Pandya clears long-on and brings up his fifty off 48 balls. Floated up on middle, Pandya unleases the smoothest of swings and sends the ball over the boundary

36.5 Zampa to Pandya, SIX, Quicker and flatter on middle, it does not matter. Pandya still clears his front leg and clouts it straight of long-on who is in the deep now

Sri Lanka v India, 3rd Test, August 13, 2017, Pallekelle

115.3 Pushpakumara to Pandya, SIX, Flight on off, Pandya comes down and lofts that easily over long-off. Just clean striking. These are big runs in the context of the game

115.4 Pushpakumara to Pandya, SIX, The benefits of T20 cricket. India get to 450. Shimmies down and hammers a flat six to long-off. Flat and straight. Sensational striking. Pushpakumara going over the wicket doesn't help

115.5 Pushpakumara to Pandya, SIX more. Where has this guy been in Test cricket. Comes down and blitzes this over long-on. Fantastic hitting technique this

India v Pakistan, Champions Trophy final, June 18, 2017, The Oval

22.1 Shadab Khan to Pandya, SIX runs, tossed up and fetched into the (rapidly emptying) stands! That's a meaty blow, showing his power with a swing to cow corner

22.2 Shadab Khan to Pandya, SIX runs, in the slot and he clears the rope at long-on! Pandya is giving those India fans still hanging in there something to cheer about

22.3 Shadab Khan to Pandya, SIX runs, six more, that's beastly hitting! The number of the devil brings up Pandya's half-century from 32 balls. Need a few more of those to get India dreaming, though...

India v Pakistan, Champions Trophy, June 4, 2017, Birmingham

47.1 Imad Wasim to Pandya, SIX, Hardik starts it with a six. Full on off stump, he's cleared his front leg and launched it high over long-off

47.2 Imad Wasim to Pandya, SIX, full again, but not full enough to deny elevation. Wider this time, and Hardik launches this over wide long-off, a more flat-batted hit on this occasion

47.3 Imad Wasim to Pandya, SIX, three in a row! This one's pulled back slightly, and he's bowled it slower, on off stump. Hardik uses that extra time to step across, go down on one knee, and slog-sweep over deep midwicket

 

[jnaveen1980]

Pandya did it in test as well once.

 

[Wonderwoman]

Four times.

0.1, 0.2, 0.3
1.3, 1.4, 1.5
4.1, 4.2, 4.3
9.2, 9.3, 9.4

Still lost the game tho

 

[Hyperion66]

When he fires you win? Do you remember..rehney dou

I knew someone will eventually mention CT lol, what I mean is we mostly win when he performs.

 

[Napa]

Oh yes!!!

Make that 5 instances then.

Who’s done it more?

According to multiple sites on the internet, only Pandya and ABD have done it 4 times in ODIs ever (or the last couple of decades?).

[Napa]

Never seen a bowler so excited after having conceded 20+ runs in an over. Won't tell you the total runs conceded, you will have to watch to find out

 

[Bhaijaan]

Pandya did it in test as well once.

He has now done it in all 3 formats of international cricket.

Is he the first to do so?

My bad.
He hasn't done it in T20 internationals yet.

4 times in ODIs
Once in test cricket

 

[The Bald Eagle]

People like Imad Wasim used to troll Rizwan that he can't hit a six and now see this

 

[BouncerGuy]

Mohammad Rizwan has now hit most sixes for Pakistan surpassing Mohamamd Hafeez.

Nobody could have thought that this guy would break the record for the most sixes in T20Is for Pakistan. I still remember he couldn't even make it to play a single game for Karachi Kings in the PSL back in 2020 and now see where he is standing in international cricket.
