IPL 2024: Rinku Singh and Rishabh Pant hit a big six

In the 16th match of IPL 2024, Kolkata Knight Riders defeated Delhi Capitals by 106 runs. Batting first, Kolkata scored 272 runs and then destroyed Delhi Capitals in just 17.2 overs and the team was bundled out for 166 runs. However, this match saw excellent batting from both Delhi and Kolkata. Rinku Singh for Kolkata and captain Rishabh Pant for Delhi hit two sixes each, which left people surprised.

See Rinku Singh's six

You must have seen many sixes being hit with one hand on the cricket field. Rishabh Pant has done this many times. But the way KKR batsman Rinku Singh hit a six with one hand was really worth seeing. Rinku came to bat in the slog over and was facing Enrique Norgia, one of the fastest bowlers in the world. Enrique Norgia bowled the ball outside the off stump to Rinku Singh and the player hit a six using just one hand. Surprisingly, Rinku hit a six towards cover. Hitting a six with one hand in this direction requires timing as well as strength and Rinku showed that she has both.

Watch Rishabh Pant's sixes

Rinku hit a six with one hand, while Rishabh Pant hit a six without looking. Kolkata Knight Riders put Venkatesh Iyer on bowling and the player bowled the ball towards Pant's feet. Without even looking, Pant hit a six over fine leg. The manner in which Pant played this shot was really surprising.

Everyone was surprised to see this six

Pant's shot and his innings against KKR proved that he is now ready to return to Team India. Pant played an inning of 55 runs in 25 balls which included 5 sixes. However, the Delhi captain could not avoid a big defeat for his team.
