Top 10 hardest hitters in cricket currently

With the advent of T20 cricket, the game has become all about powerful bats and clearing the boundaries these days. Six-hitting has become a familiar sight, courtesy of players who use all kinds of shots to send the ball out of the field.Here is a list of the 10 best and cleanest strikers of the cricket ball at present, who are able to hit the longest hits on any ground in the world.Note: The list is generated considering the players’ reputation to clear the boundary easily.Special mention:Virender Sehwag – In his heydays, Sehwag was the cleanest striker of the ball. Lack of footwork didn’t matter as his hand-eye coordination was one of the best in world cricket. His upper cut against the fiery pace of Shoaib Akhtar in the 2003 World Cup is one which comes to mind. Against spinners, he was particularly brutal, able to clear grounds at ease.Alex Hales – Standing tall at 6 feet 5 inches, Alex Hales is among the rare breed of English batsmen who can be brutal hitters. With a tall build and long limbs, he generates immense power and his swing of the bat is able to clear any boundary in the world. England’s only centurion in T20I narrowly misses out on the top 10.

#10 David Warner

The opener from Australia is someone who sets the tone for the rest of the innings by breaking apart bowling attacks in powerplays. Even in the middle overs, he dictates play like no other and dominates the game.

The left-hander has exhibited great amount of consistency as well as aggression. Warner is a great athlete and with his brutal force, is able to hit some amazing shtos. But nothing comes close to the power he exhibits while hitting the switch hits, and without a doubt, plays that shot the best in the world.
