Brian Lara destroying Spin Bowlers

[Daemon]

I don't recall McCullum hitting massive ones on the regular tbh.

 

[Daemon]

No idea how big this is but it looks massive

 

[honestbharani]

Think it was during his 400

I mean Lara is great and all. But this is footage of him smacking about a bloke who was rubbish and a cheat. Surely there are better videos out there.

Jayasuriya hit a massive one in the WC '96 QF against England, that one always sticks in my mind for some reason when I remember big sixes.

 

[honestbharani]

The one that fell on the dish antennae right? It was a defining moment of that WC for me.

1:40 in this video. Great stumping to get him at the end as well

Raina could hit a long ball for a small guy. ABD too.

How tall is Rohit?

 

[trundler]

Finch is 5'9" and he bombs some yuge ones

Lara versus Robin Peterson

How tall is Rohit?

Noway Rohit is 5'8 as Cricinfo suggests.

92 runs and 12 fours 5 sixes already

lol that second six was ****ing massive.

I watched this sequence live. At first I was just frustrated but after that second six I just sat back and grabbed some popcorn.

 

[nightprowler10]

But Danish Kaneria had the last laugh

Buddy he practically ended Kaneria's career.

 

[Migara]

has a 5'8 dude ever smashed the ball as far as lara? he had ferocious power and timing.

Jayasuriya was 5' 8" too and was not too shabby with his six hitting. So were guys like Salim Malik, Ijaz Ahmed etc. Sachin and de Silva were way shorter than that, but hit them miles. Richie Richardson was not particularly tall either, and he hit them bloody hard.

 

[Migara]

Dhoni hit some pretty big ones back in the day

Doni is about 6' if I am not mistaken. That is pretty tall by Asian standards for a batsman.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

There was a certain Mohammad Ashraful

175cm, dunno what that is in weirdo units
