Afghanistan cricketer scores 42 runs in one T20 over in Kabul Premier League Twenty20 match

Afghanistan cricketer Sediqullah Atal smashed an incredible 42 runs in one over in a Kabul Premier League Twenty20 match.

In a match between Shaheen Hunters and Abasin Defenders at Kabul’s Ayobi Cricket Stadium, Atal thrashed Amir Zazai for a staggering 42 runs.

Atal was batting on 76, with the team 158/6, when Zazai came in to bowl in the 19th over.

Zazai had conceded 35 runs from three overs when he got the penultimate over underway. On the first ball, the spinner overstepped and was smashed for a six.

The next ball was a wide — which beat the keeper for four byes — meaning Zazai had already gone for 12 runs, and he was still to register a legitimate delivery.

48 runs from 1 over. @Sediq_Atal26 is now in the cricketing history books. Equalled Rituraj Gaikwad’s 7 sixes in an over. Poor Amir Zazai, almost escaped a heartache. This
