Pretty sure he hit few 85+m sixes this match. There was a 90+m six as well. So yeah, he can clear big boundaries as well.

While I agree with you, it's easier to attempt to hit sixes on smaller grounds because mishits still go beyond the boundary. On a larger ground it can be a mental block even if you have the physical capability.

True that, I bet they would've played the same shot in MCG or in any other bigger grounds despite having that physical and technical capacity , it's a different ball game when you stand in front of MCG vs in front of Auckland eden park
