Rinku Singh hit 5 sixes in 5 balls :-
KKR needed 29 runs in the last over. On the first ball, Umesh Yadav took a single and gave strike to Rinku Singh. Getting 28 runs off 5 balls looked nothing less than an impossible task. But, Rinku Singh did this feat single-handedly.
Rinku hit five sixes in five balls of Yash Dayal bowling in the last over. This is the most exciting match in all the matches played in IPL 2023 so far.
Tewatiya has done this feat :-
It is noteworthy that earlier in the year 2020, Rahul Teotia, who was playing for Rajasthan at that time, had also done the feat of hitting five sixes in one over. The 9th match of IPL 2020 was played between Rajasthan Royals and Kings XI Punjab.
The Punjab team had scored a huge score of 223 runs in 20 overs at the loss of 2 wickets. Chasing this huge score, the hands and feet of the Rajasthan batsmen were swollen. However, in the 18th over, Teotia snatched the match from Punjab’s mouth with his bat.
