    Narendra Modi Stadium: Delhi Capitals wicketkeeper-batter KL Rahul became the fastest Indian to reach the 200 sixes milestone in the IPL, having achieved the feat in 128th innings, against Gujarat Titans at the Narendra Modi Stadium on Saturday.

    The right-handed batter took the attack to Mohammed Siraj, in the third over, and after hitting him for a four on the previous delivery, created space for himself and slammed it over long-on. In doing so, he surpassed Rajasthan Royals captain Sanju Samson, who took 159 innings to reach the milestone. Other Indians on the list include MS Dhoni (165 innings), Virat Kohli (180 innings), Rohit Sharma (185 innings) and Suresh Raina (193 innings).

    Rahul is also the third fastest to reach the milestone behind only West Indies big hitters Chris Gayle and Andre Russell who took 69 and 97 innings respectively to reach the milestone.
