Six sixes in an over hit by Indian off-spinner all rounder Sir Jadeja who now became the latest individual to achieve this feat. Indian all-rounder, Ravindra Jadeja featuring for Jamnagar district against Amreli at the Saurashtra Cricket Association stadium, blasted innings off 154 runs facing 69 balls in the Saurashtra Cricket Association (SCA) inter-district T20 tournament in Rajkot. Off Spinner, Nilam Vemja was the unfortunate of the lot to turn up for bowling the 15th over. The 29-year-old lofted his six deliveries out of the park to achieve the intelligent feat besides the likes of Sir Garfield Sobers, Ravi Shastri, Herschelle Gibbs, Yuvraj Singh and Alex Hales.

Sir Jadeja framework up a attack of 15 fours and 10 sixes innings. Opening for his team, the Jamnagar southpaw 20 overs to a total of 239 runs conceding 6 wickets. Jadeja was run out in the 19th over, but the damage was done by then.

Chasing the mammoth total, Amreli restricted for just total of 118/5 in 20 overs. For Amreli, Vishal Vasoya's 36 runs and Nilam Vemja's 32 runs was not enough to chase down the target. Mahendra Jethva bowling for Jamnagar, took 3 wickets in 4 overs conceding just 6 runs. Rested for the shorter formats against Sri Lanka, Jadeja seems to be in shape ahead of India's tour of South Africa from January 5. While the selectors' judgement remains clouded about Jadeja's form, Sir Jadeja's onslaught came in as a reckoning that he has still got it in himself.
