Few moments are as gratifying for a batter returning from injury as displaying a powerful stroke, capped with a towering six. England skipper Jos Buttler did that and smashed an immense 115-meter six off Gudakesh Motie, leaving the crowd erupted in excitement, while Motie stood in stunned disbelief.

‌The West Indies' top order struggled with small contributions from Brandon King, Evin Lewis, and Nicholas Pooran. However, captain Rovman Powell's 43 runs and a late cameo of 13 off 6 balls from Matthew Forde lifted the team to 158/8 in their 20 overs. England endured a disastrous start in reply, with Phil Salt dismissed for a golden duck. But the brilliant partnership between Will Jacks and Jos Buttler steered England to victory.

 

One of the standout moments in England’s chase came when Buttler hit a colossal six off Gudakesh Motie. On the third ball of the ninth over, Motie bowled a length delivery, which Buttler picked up early. With perfect footwork, Buttler danced down the pitch and launched the ball into the sky over long-on. The hit was so clean and powerful that the ball sailed a staggering 115 meters, crashing into the stadium's roof. The crowd erupted and Motie was stunned by the sheer power of the shot and stood momentarily in disbelief, sweating as he prepared to bowl the next delivery.

What a shot!! surprised
