Most sixes in HBL PSL history: Which player hit most sixes in PSL history?

Lahore Qalandars opening batter Fakhar Zaman took a giant leap in the list of most sixes in the history of the Pakistan Super League during the recently concluded 15th match of the eighth season of the tournament.

Zaman, who hit as many as 10 sixes during the course of his 38th T20 and 18th PSL half-century, joined former Peshawar Zalmi wicket-keeper batter Kamran Akmal to share the top spot among players with most sixes in PSL history.

With Akmal retiring from all formats of cricket earlier this year, all Zaman has to do is hit another six against Islamabad United tonight to bag a record to his name in one of the best T20 tournaments of the world.

Having said that, Zaman will have to be wary of United batter Asif Ali as there’s a minuscule difference of three sixes between the two in this list. Hence, it wouldn’t be a surprise if Ali outperforms Zaman at the Gaddafi Stadium on Monday to claim the top position. A battle within a larger battle has it in it to grab the attention of fans.
