IPL 2026: Longest Sixes in IPL History - Mitchell Marsh's 102-metre Six not Even Close to Top 10 List

In a thrilling IPL 2026 clash between Royal Challengers Bengaluru and Lucknow Super Giants at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium, Australian all-rounder Mitchell Marsh unleashed a monstrous 102-meter six off Bhuvneshwar Kumar.

The ball sailed high over the boundary and out of the stadium, leaving fans and commentators stunned. Marsh, known for his powerful striking, timed the delivery perfectly, sending it deep into the stands with immense elevation and distance.

Although Mitchell Marsh's hit travelled a long way, the six is not even close to the longest hits in the history of IPL.

Longest Sixes in IPL

Albie Morkel set the benchmark early with a 125-meter six in 2008 while playing for Chennai Super Kings against Deccan Chargers. This remains the longest in IPL history. Close behind is Praveen Kumar's 124-meter effort in the same season. Legends like Adam Gilchrist (122m), Robin Uthappa (120m), and Chris Gayle (119m) have also produced jaw-dropping maximums that fans still replay years later.

Over the seasons, records have evolved with fitter athletes and better equipment. Big hitters like Yuvraj Singh, Ben Cutting, and Liam Livingstone feature prominently in the top lists. In recent years, players such as Ravindra Jadeja and MS Dhoni have added notable long sixes, proving experience counts too. Mitchell Marsh's 102m six in 2026 joins a proud tradition, reminding us why T20 cricket thrives on such explosive moments.
