RE:Six sixes
by vinay kumar on Mar 17, 2007 12:56 AM

Gary Sobers was the first to hit six consecutive Sixes from six deliveries in a single over. The unfortunate bowler, Malcolm Nash, almost stopped the onslaught with his fifth ball of the over when Roger Davis, fielding near the boundary at long off, caught one of Sobers. almighty blows but then fell over the boundary rope.

Second Our good old Ravi Shastri: Six of the sixes came off a single over of the left arm spinner Tilak Raj. Wondering who Tilak Raj is... then... Tilak Raj (born Jan 15, 1960) in Delhi was an Indian cricketer who played for Baroda. He is best known for being the unfortunate victim of Ravi Shastri's six sixes in an over in 1985. It was only the second instance of this in First Class Cricket.

Next is GIBBS...(please read the article)!
