Nepal's Airee makes history by smashing six sixes in an over

Dipendra Singh Airee, Nepal's big-hitting finisher, entered the record books as the third man to hit six sixes in an over in an international T20 game, achieving the feat in the last over against Qatar in their ACC Men's Premier Cup match in Al Amerat on Saturday. Getting the last over on 28 going 15 balls and Nepal on 174 for 7, Airee crushed medium pacer Kamran Khan for six sixes to end on 64 from 21. Nepal's 210 for 7 then, at that point, demonstrated a lot for Qatar as they went somewhere near 32 runs. Airee likewise took two wickets in the pursuit. That put his name on a rundown which just had Yuvraj Singh (off Stuart Expansive in Durban in the 2007 T20 World Cup) and Kieron Pollard (off Akila Dananjaya in Coolidge in 2021) up until this point. In ODI cricket, the accomplishment has been accomplished by Herschelle Gibbs and USA's Jaskaran Malhotra. However, airee, the 24-year-old playing his 60th T20I to go with 55 ODIs, is no more odd to the accomplishment. He had accomplished it once already, however the six back to back sixes on that event were spread across two overs. That was during the Asian Games in Hangzhou in September 2023, against Mongolia. It was made considerably more stupendous on the grounds that those sixes fell off the initial six legitimate conveyances he had confronted. The initial five came in one over off Mungun Altankhuyag, and Airee finished the set off the primary ball he looked next over from Luvsanzundui Erdenebulgan. Airee had scored 52 not out in ten balls that day as Nepal set up a mammoth 314 for 3 and afterward bowled Mongolia out for 41. It was the initial 300 or more group complete in a T20I match, and the nine balls Airee took to get the quickest ever T20I fifty ever, besting the characteristic of 12 held by Yuvraj, Chris Gayle and Hazratullah Zazai.
