Another Indian on the elite list smashing six sixes in an over. Andhra batter Vamshhi Krrishna achieved this remarkable milestone on Wednesday. He slammed six sixes in an over during a Col CK Nayudu Trophy match against Railways in Kadapa.
Previously three Indian batters – Ravi Shastri (1985), Yuvraj Singh (2007) and Ruturaj Gaikwad (2022) achieved this rare record. All of them in their times cracked six sixes in an over. Now Vamshhi Krrishna is the fourth Indian batter to claim his name on that list.
It was the fourth and final day of the Andhra vs Railways encounter during a Col CK Nayudu Trophy match in Kadapa. Krishna showed a stunning exhibition of clean striking throughout the ground. The first ball Krrishna hit was a slog-sweep as he fetched the ball from outside off and deposited it over the deep mid-wicket fence. Krrishna then went down town on the second ball, smacking it over the long-on fence. On the third ball Krrishna picked up the full-length delivery and smashed it over the deep fence. The fourth ball of the over, once again saw a Krrishna slog sweep sailing over the deep fence. On the fifth ball his conventional sweep went over the deep square-leg boundary. On the sixth ball Krishna rocked onto the backfoot and clubbing the ball over the deep fence.
