West Indies’ great cricketer Sir Gary Sobers created history on 31 August 1968 by hitting 6 sixes in an over. In which match and against which bowler did he achieve this feat? Let us tell you- Sir Garfield Sobers came out to bat after Nottinghamshire lost 5 wickets In the match against Glamorgan in the English County Championship, Sir Garfield Sobers hit 6 sixes in an over. This was the first time such a thing was seen in first-class cricket.

Nottinghamshire were 308 for 5 when captain Garry Sobers came out to bat. The score was 358/5 with Sobers unbeaten on 40. Glamorgan captain Tony Lewis then asked bowler Malcolm Nash to bowl spin against Garry Sobers. Nash, who usually bowled medium pace, had other plans and he smashed 6 sixes off 6 balls bowled by Nash. This is how Sir Garry Sobers hit 6 sixes On the first ball of the over, Sir Garfield Sobers hit a six towards long-on. The second ball was short, but he used his strength to hit it towards deep square leg. On the third ball, Sobers again went down the ground and hit a classic six. Sobers then completed the six by sending the fourth ball to square leg. Malcolm Nash felt that Sobers would definitely make a mistake and that is what happened on the fifth ball.

The last six of the over hit by Sir Garry Sobers went out of the ground and reached the bus stop.
