KF vs DS | Twitter reacts to Andre Fletcher’s back-to-back no-look sixes bemusing Mohammad Nabi
With the ever-evolving T20 format in cricket, players are constantly innovating with new strokeplay and scoring options. One such execution that often stunned the bowlers in recent times is the no-look six, and Andre Fletcher reiterated it against Mohammad Nabi in the LPL clash on Monday.
Winning the toss and electing to field first, the Dambulla Sixers struck early inside the powerplay as Dinesh Chandimal was trapped leg before wicket. Unbothered by the early setback, Andre Fletcher played his natural game and attacked the opposition bowlers with the middle-order batters. His explosive batting peaked when the Caribbean star smacked three back-to-back sixes off Mohammad Nabi, two of which were no-look sixes.
After a single off the first ball of the 12th over, Fletcher reached 40. Two balls later, Nabi came around the wicket and sprayed a fuller delivery at the leg stump that the batter slogged down the ground for a six. In the next couple of tossed-up deliveries, the opener planted the front foot in front and clubbed a couple of more sixes over cow corner and deep mid wicket respectively. He executed the strokes in a whippy fashion without even looking at where the ball was soaring. Playing such audacious strokes requires a high skillset and the bowler and Twitterverse were awed by his sensational striking.
