Overall, Brendon McCullum has 398 sixes in international cricket. He is only behind Rohit Sharma (623*), Chris Gayle (553) and Shahid Afridi (476).

Meanwhile, Ben Stokes has smashed 262 maximums across formats so far.

Ben Stokes recently told BBC (via Cricket Pakistan):

“Batting first will give us a clearer understanding of how Pakistan’s spinners operate.”

“Leg-spinners have an amazing ability to break a game open. Having his batting ability lower down the order is also a massive bonus. The way Leach and Bashir have bowled has been fantastic in these first two Tests. Adding Rehan’s free spirit and desperation to change the game every time he’s got the ball in his hand is a massive bonus for us this week,” he added.
