One of the key skills required for a batter to succeed in the T20 format is to hit sixes. Very few batters have achieved success in T20 cricket without taking the aerial route frequently. Some of the batters have mastered the art of smashing sixes at regular intervals.
The likes of Chris Gayle and AB de Villiers have shown that it does not matter who is bowling to you, you can hit sixes on any ball if you have the ability. The Indians are also not far behind.
