Just a few days back, a left-handed batsman naming Leo Carter registered his name in record book after smashing six sixes in an over during New Zealand’s Super Smash T20 League.

In the 22nd match of the tournament between Canterbury Kings and Northern Knights, Carter ripped apart Knights’ bowler Anton Devcich, sending every delivery over the ropes.

36 off an over! 😲

The blistering knock reminded cricket lovers of India’s former middle-order batsman Yuvraj Singh who also showcased similar stuff in the first edition of the T20 World Cup against England in 2007 at Kingsmead.

Yuvraj got involved in a heated exchange of words with former all-rounder Andrew Flintoff during that matc??h. This verbal spat pumped up the Punjab-born star, and it was Stuart Broad, who bore the anger after getting hit for six consecutive sixes.

Yuvraj has now reacted to Carter’s incredible knock. The former India all-rounder took to Twitter and shared his views. He welcomed the New Zealander to the ‘six sixes’ club.

“Welcome Leo Carter to the six sixes club! That was some epic hitting, now please sign your jersey and give it to Devcich as a mark of respect,” tweeted Yuvraj.

Chasing ??220 to win against Northern Districts,?? the Knights were still some distance away from a win despite putting themselves in a good position till that point.

They req?uired 64 runs from the last five overs, an asking rate of nearly 13 runs an over. However, Carter ensured they reach the target with seven balls to spare.

Carter remained unbeaten ??at 70 off 29 balls, striking at a fearsome rate of 241.37.

Carter has now join?ed Garry Sobers, Ravi Shastri, Herschelle Gibbs, Yuvraj Singh, Ross Whitley and Hazratullah Zazai as ??players who have hit six sixes in an over.

Of these batsmen, only two – Gibbs and Yuvraj – managed to pull off the feat in international cricket. Shastri and Sobers did so in first-class cricket, whereas Whitley and Zazai, much like Carter, achieved this in T20 cricket.
