The day started with a boring EPS lecture. After the lecture we went to play cricket at the 5 Gardens. This is becoming more of a routine these days. We play almost thrice a week.
So we were playing a 6 over match and i went out to open our innings. We were batting first and so there wasnt any kind of pressure on my and Rahul, who was opening alongside me. We had a good steady start and our run rate was pretty healthy. We were scoring like 9-10 runs per over. In the third over, i committed a stupid mistake which resulted in Rahul running out. Afterwards Pranav joined me and we played the next two over pretty well. At the end of 5 overs our scorecard read 56 runs. It was a good score as it is.... But what followed next was something of miracle which everyone of us must have dreamed of.
In the last over i hit 6 sixes!!!!!!! Not only that ... We scored 40 runs in that over!!!!!!
(hey 6*6 is 36..... so how come 40???.... i will explain)
Ball one: It was a juicy half volley and i dispatched it over the mid-wicket boundry... First Six
Ball two: Similar ball..... this time it crossed the 5 gardens and went into a taxi...
Ball three: A low full toss.... blasted it!!!! \m/ 18 runs from 3 deliveries..
Ball four: A DOT BALL!!!!! i swinged and missed....
then my friend bowled 3 wides!!!!! so now it was 21 runs from 4 balls..
Ball five: A full toss above waist height which was hit for a six !!!! 7 runs...
So it was 28 runs from 4 balls!!!!
Ball 5 (again): A short pitched delivery . I pulled that one like a tennis shot. Surprisingly even that went for a six!!! ( 34 from 5 balls)
Ball 6: A simple short ball which was again pulled for a six... ( 40 runs from 6 balls!!!!)
i agree that the bowler was bowling pretty lame deliveries but 40 runs from 6 balls was like truly AWESOME!!!!!
we posted a huge total of 96 from 6 over ( 16 rpo!!!!!)
It was indeed a memorable day for me...!!!!! I actually did something worth remembering!!!!!
Cheers!!!!
PS: If u think what happened of the match.... we did win it :P

See the most important thing from the bowler's point of view.........i mean to judge him to be a bowler of mettle and a mai ka laal is that.........it is a miracle in itself that one dot delivery was bowled in the midst of an over which can compete to become the most expensive over of the domestic Indian cricket!!!!!!!!!!
lolzzz... true.... why domestic indian cricket p.... international cricket
i said domestic cricket because we have not considered the feats of Bradman in Australian gully cricket.
yeah... thats true....
