The Indian Premier League (IPL) 2020 is right around the corner as it is slated to be played from September 19-November 10 in the UAE across three venues --Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and Sharjah.

While franchises and players are getting ready to participate in the cash-rich tournament, many teams will be looking to break many records.

With it comes to the limited-overs matches, the one things that grab everyone's attention is the rain of sixes.

Players like Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, Suresh Raina, Chris Gayle and AB de Villiers come into play when one talks about hitting the ball off the fence.

However, there is one record that MS Dhoni holds that has left players like Kieron Pollard, Andre Russell and others behind.
