1. Jayasuriya - 188 Sixes in 325 Innings
2. Afridi - 187 Sixes in 188 Innings
3. Ganguly - 168 Sixes in 258 Innings
4. Cairns - 144 Sixes in 180 Innings
5. Tendulkar - 142 Sixes in 333 Innings

Afridi averaging 0.99 Sixes per Innings. :-D

[Civil]

After the India series it will be 2 per innings :-D

The only other person who can match Afridi is Andrew Flintoff he has a phenominal record aswell.

Averaging 1.02 per innings, but he has only played half the innings that Afridi has played.

A Flintoff 80 71 11 2111 123 35.18 3 92.95 73 1.02 ENG

Watch out for Kevin Peterson in a few years time, he has only played a handfull of ODI games but he is a big clean striker in country cricket...

[sy]

wow some achievement from Afridi.

[Rob H]

The Afridi ceases to amaze me

[Naeem]

Afridi was averaging over 1 six per game even at the 150 game stage....

[Geordie Ahmed]

Afridi has now got 190 sixes, he overtakes Jayasuriya!

[161]

frankly, i care more about afridi helping his team win then breaking the record.

afridi knew he had to pace his inning yesterday---> but he kept going for the glory.

how is that any different then what ***** does??

afridi needs to understand that there are times for going for the big shots , and times when he needs to last longer.

For a player who has played international cricket for so long, he should have known better last night.

[zzzzzz]

Afridi should have stayed there. I think its just the love for the country that can make u giveup going for records. If he really was as determined as Rana I think Pak would have won. Im so dejected. We should have won.

[sajjad]

The AFRIDI will be the man taking us into the third final

[Rob H]

I hope he can take us to the 3rd final. Hope he doesnt toss his wicket away

[evsa]

Please come on. Since when has hitting a six become more important than a good batting record.

He has one good performance in 10. That is not good enough.

A dirty slogger is not what Pakistan need.

However his bowling is coming along well to justify his inclusion in the squad.

[sajjad]

he isnt just a batsmen
he is primarily a bowler who can bat
and does both quite amicably in my mind

[Sage]

Exactly Sajjad

He was ruined when people started calling him a batsman

[sajjad]

ppl still think of him as a batsmen.
He has always been a bowler who swings quite hard and rocks the opposition in a matter of minutes if not seconds.

if our top order would work we wud not need his heroics
