Kieron Pollard has finally done it. The Mumbai Indians star has equalled the record set by Yuvraj Singh and Herschelle Gibbs. The West Indian all-rounder has managed to hit six sixes in an over. Though it took a while, it did finally happen. The game was the first T20 international between the West Indies and Sri Lanka.
Though it was a rather comfortable four-wicket win for the home side, the Stanford Cricket Ground saw some spectacular hitting from the big man. The bowler at the end of it was spinner Akila Dananjaya.
The fans may never again possibly see such a thing happen any time soon. It was a brutal hammering that Kieron Pollard gave to the opposition bowler.

Well, it just seems to be a competition between the hitters. Kieron Pollard is doing it already and so are some of his rival batsmen ahead of the IPL tournament. The IPL 2020 may have not been the best for this star, yet the Mumbai Indians retained their title.
With that being said, Kieron Pollard is already looking set to change that. If he can work on his form now and retain it, things could get really interesting. It is not going to be easy retaining the title for the third year in a row. However, if any team can do it, it is surely Rohit Sharma and co.
