Liam Livingstone (Birmingham Phoenix): 71 Sixes
Livingstone is the undisputed six-hitting king of The Hundred, clearing the boundary 71 times across 38 matches at a strike rate of 148.87.
His power comes from brute force combined with innovative shot-making, switching between orthodox drives and reverse sweeps for six with equal ease.
His unbeaten 92 remains his highest score in the competition. Livingstone averages 34.34 with 996 career runs, hitting roughly two sixes per innings throughout his Hundred career for Birmingham Phoenix.
Will Jacks (Oval Invincibles): 53 Sixes
Jacks combines boundary hitting with the highest strike rate (160.15) among the top five on this list, making him arguably the most complete attacking batter in Hundred history.
His 108 not out is the highest individual score in the men’s competition. Jacks has scored 1,065 runs across 42 matches with an impressive 110 fours alongside his 53 sixes, meaning he hits a boundary every 4.1 balls on average.
His ability to clear the rope from both sides of the wicket makes him a nightmare for bowling attacks.
Phil Salt (Manchester Originals): 51 Sixes
Salt is the highest run scorer in Hundred history with 1,138 runs across 43 matches, and his 51 sixes have come at a strike rate of 152.95.
He combines explosive power with consistency, hitting 7 fifties without a century (highest score 86).
Salt’s approach is built on finding boundaries early in the innings, with 108 fours complementing his 51 sixes across 744 balls faced.
His presence at the top of the order for Manchester Originals has been one of the most reliable features of the competition.
Sam Curran (Oval Invincibles): 49 Sixes
Curran’s 49 sixes from the middle order make him the most prolific six-hitter among all-rounders in the competition.
His strike rate of 150.49 across 37 matches reflects his role as an aggressive finisher who targets the boundary from ball one. Curran has scored 757 runs at an average of 26.10 with a highest score of 68.
His all-round value, combining lower-order hitting with death-overs bowling, has been central to the Oval Invincibles’ success across multiple seasons.
Moeen Ali (Birmingham Phoenix): 40 Sixes
Moeen’s 40 sixes came across just 30 matches (2021 to 2024), giving him the second-best sixes-per-match ratio on this list behind Livingstone.
His ability to target spinners with lofted drives and sweeps over the leg side made him one of the most feared top-order hitters in the competition.
Moeen averaged 22.67 with a highest score of 60 and a strike rate of 138.64.
His partnership with Livingstone at Birmingham Phoenix created one of the most destructive power-hitting duos in Hundred history.
Harry Brook (Northern Superchargers): 39 Sixes
Brook holds the highest average (37.58) and highest strike rate (162.52) among the top 12 on this list, making him the most efficient six-hitter in Hundred history. His unbeaten 105 is one of only two centuries scored in the men’s competition.
Brook has scored 902 runs across 35 matches with 84 fours alongside his 39 sixes, producing a boundary roughly every 4.5 balls.
His ability to accelerate through the middle overs while maintaining control separates him from pure power hitters on this list.
Jos Buttler (Manchester Originals): 38 Sixes
Buttler’s 38 sixes from just 25 matches give him the best sixes-per-match ratio (1.52) on the entire list, proving his destructive capability when available.
Injury and international commitments have limited his appearances, but his 915 runs at an average of 39.78 demonstrate consistency alongside power.
Buttler’s highest score of 82 came in a typically clinical innings built on timing rather than brute force. His 80 fours and 38 sixes from 642 balls translate to a boundary every 5.5 deliveries.
Jordan Cox (Oval Invincibles): 38 Sixes
Cox boasts the highest average (49.47) on the entire list, remaining not out 8 times in 27 innings while scoring 940 runs.
His 38 sixes at a strike rate of 154.09 reflect a player who combines accumulation with acceleration.
Cox’s 92 fours complement his 38 sixes, giving him a remarkable boundary count across just 29 matches. His unbeaten 86 is his highest score in the competition.
The Oval Invincibles have built much of their batting strategy around Cox’s ability to finish innings.
Dawid Malan (NSC/OI/TR): 35 Sixes
Malan’s 35 sixes across 40 matches represent a more selective approach to power hitting compared to others on this list.
His strike rate of 130.30 is the lowest in the top 12, reflecting his anchor role across three different franchises.
However, Malan’s 1,019 runs at an average of 29.97 prove his value as a stabiliser who can also clear the boundary when required.
His unbeaten 98 is the closest anyone has come to a century without reaching three figures in the competition.
Tom Kohler-Cadmore (NSC/TR/WF): 33 Sixes
Kohler-Cadmore’s 33 sixes across 36 matches have come at a strike rate of 127.74, the lowest on this list. His approach prioritises building an innings before targeting boundaries in the later stages.
With 709 runs at an average of 21.48 and a highest score of 84, his contributions have been steady rather than spectacular.
His versatility in playing for three different franchises across five seasons shows his value as an adaptable middle-order batter in the 100-ball format.
