T20 cricket largely became popular because we can see a large number of sixes in a match, and this results in large sections of fans getting thoroughly entertained. Teams with more batters who can make the ball go across the ropes have a high chance of winning games more often than not and, at the same time, gaining a huge following among the masses.
SA20, a relatively new entrant to the world of T20 leagues in its brief stint thus far, has shown it has all the ingredients to grow into a successful T20 tourney. This is largely thanks to a resounding number of big hitters from all six participating teams.
Here we will see the team-wise breakdown of sixes in the SA20 competition.
| Team | Matches | No. of Sixes | Sixes/Match |
|---|---|---|---|
| MI Cape Town (MICT) | 42 | 357 | 8.5 |
| Pretoria Capitals (PC) | 44 | 284 | 6.4 |
| Durban’s Super Giants (DSG) | 42 | 278 | 6.6 |
| Sunrisers Eastern Cape (SEC) | 48 | 247 | 5.1 |
| Joburg Super Kings (JSK) | 44 | 228 | 5.1 |
| Paarl Royals (PR) | 46 | 217 | 4.7 |
