Power-hitting plays a crucial role in the T20 format right now. A few players train every day for this aspect alone. This has allowed them to become monsters with the bat in this format. With them on the pitch, the game is not always over. At the same time, they provide a lot of entertainment, as well. On that note, here, we take a look at the list of the three most destructive hitters of the cricket ball in IPL 2024.
1) Heinrich Klaasen
In recent years, no one has seen such as rise in peak as Heinrich Klaasen has seen. The South African cricketer is arguably the best hitter of the cricket ball at the moment. Especially against spin, it is almost impossible to protect the spinner against Klaasen’s wrath.
For SRH, in the last two seasons, Klaasen has been in spectacular form. He has also started IPL 2024 on a good note. This could be a defining season for the South African cricketer.
2) Andre Russell
There has never been a doubt about the strength of Andre Russell. He has some weaknesses and if he is protected against them, he is always a dangerous cricketer.
For the last few seasons in the IPL, he has not been in good touch. However, he is slowly rediscovering his old form and the first match of IPL 2024 for KKR was proof of the same.
3) Tim David
Tim David is one of the most destructive hitters of the cricket ball in IPL 2024. For this slot, the likes of Liam Livingstone and Rovman Powell would also be a good competition. However, on his day, Tim David can be extremely dangerous. Hence, he is on this list.
Tim David thrives against medium-pace bowling at any phase of the game. While he has some issues against spin, he is slowly improving them. Against high-end pace, as well, Tim David has a good power-hitting game.
