Hitting 36 runs in a single over — yeah, that’s a thing. Seriously, it’s like the holy grail of cricket stunts. Only a handful have done it. I mean, you have to have crazy timing, Hulk-like strength, and probably nerves of steel. Herschelle Gibbs? Yuvraj Singh? Legends. It’s wild. Imagine the pressure cooker of international cricket — every bowler trying to outsmart you, and yet, BAM! Sixer after sixer. Pure madness, but glorious.
Oh, and crazy tidbit — Kane Williamson, you know, the former New Zealand skipper with that laid-back, Zen thing going on? He tossed around a fun hypothetical with ESPN. Picture this: Virat Kohli, Steve Smith, and Joe Root — three cricket maestros. Who’s most likely to go full beast mode and smash six sixes in one over? Tough call, right? But Kane, ever the calm strategist, picked Kohli.
Why Kohli, though? Here’s the thing — the dude’s not exactly renowned for nonstop sixes. But, there’s this vibe about him, you know? That fiery determination, the way he sizes up bowlers — lethal combo. Kane figures Kohli’s got the mental game on lock, plus a knack for pulling off crazy feats in crunch time. Makes sense.
By the way, heads up: Kohli’s stepped back from Tests and T20Is. He’s zoning in on ODIs for Team India now. Just check his T20I stats — racked up 4188 runs in 125 matches. That’s bonkers. Toss in all T20s — including IPL and domestic gigs — we’re talking 13391 runs. Nine centuries, 104 fifties. Keeps getting crazier, right?
And yeah, none of these cricket juggernauts — Kohli, Root, Smith, or Williamson — have done the 6-sixes dance yet. But Kane’s shout-out to Kohli shows the hefty respect the guy commands. Killer instinct? Check. Calculated aggression? Check. It’s enough to stir any cricket convo.
Smith? Oh, he bowed out of ODIs but still hangs tight with the Aussie Test and T20 bands. Meanwhile, Root and Williamson keep playing their symphony in all formats — leading with flair and finesse.
Kane dropped another fun fact somewhere — something about his cricket hero and a killer shot he’d swipe from Kohli. But that’s a story for another day, right?
