Today, in Test cricket, batsmen fearlessly send balls across the boundary. There are some players who show game like T20 even in Test cricket. Then there are the players like Sehwag who hit six in a row, not just one or two runs, even to complete a double century. Raining sixes in test matches has become normal now, but there was a time when the batsman used to be afraid of bowlers and used to think a hundred times before hitting a six. However, even in a long test run, a bowler used to get a six at some point or another. Still, there have been some bowlers who have been an exception to this. These are the bowlers who played Trials for a long time but never hit a six. Here we are talking about those test bowlers who have bowled at least 5000 balls in test cricket but never hit a six.
