South Africa opener Herschelle Gibbs smashed six sixes in an over at the 2007 World Cup and Yuvraj Singh achieved the feat at the inaugural World T20 that year.

The list: Sobers (Nottinghamshire) v Malcom Nash (Glamorgan) -- 1968 First Class Shastri (Mumbai) v Tilak Raj (Baroda) 1984-85 First Class; Gibbs (South Africa) v Daan van Bungee (Holland) 2007 ODI; Yuvraj (India) v Stuart Broad (England) 2007.
