Dipendra Singh Airee Joins Elite Cricket Club with Six Sixes Feat: Dominates with Bat and Ball!
This outstanding performance by Airee not only secured a historic win for Nepal but also earned him a prestigious spot in cricket history alongside Yuvraj Singh and Kieron Pollard, who had achieved the same feat in previous matches. Airee’s achievement is particularly impressive considering that he also contributed with two wickets during Qatar’s batting innings. Interestingly, this wasn’t Airee’s first time making headlines with his six-hitting prowess.
He had previously achieved a similar feat during the Asian Games in 2023 against Mongolia. In that match, he scored 52 runs from just 10 balls, including six consecutive sixes off the first six legal deliveries he faced. This remarkable performance not only helped Nepal set a record-breaking total of 314 runs but also secured them a dominant victory as they bowled out Mongolia for just 41 runs.
Airee’s ability to score quickly and aggressively has earned him a reputation as one of Nepal’s key players in both T20 and ODI cricket. His talent was further highlighted by the fact that he achieved the fastest-ever T20I fifty in just nine balls, surpassing the previous record held by renowned players like Yuvraj Singh, Chris Gayle, and Hazratullah Zazai.
In summary, Dipendra Singh Airee’s remarkable achievement of hitting six sixes in an over has not only made him a national hero but has also cemented his place in cricket history as one of the most dynamic and exciting players to watch on the international stage.
