New Zealand’s cricketer Finn Allen has set a new world record after hitting the most sixes in a single T20 innings.

 

While playing in the USA’s Major League Cricket (MLC), Allen smashed 19 sixes in an explosive knock, breaking the previous record of 18 set by West Indies legend Chris Gayle.

 

Representing San Francisco Unicorns, Allen scored a blistering 151 runs off just 51 balls against Washington Freedom.

 

During his innings, Allen also achieved the record for the fastest 150 in T20 cricket, reaching the milestone in just 49 balls. This also makes him the first New Zealander to score a T20 century in just 34 balls.

 

San Francisco Unicorns defeated Washington Freedom by 123 runs. The Unicorns posted a massive total of 269 for 5, while Washington Freedom were bowled out for 146 in 13.1 overs.

 

Pakistan pacer Haris Rauf starred with the ball, taking three wickets for the San Francisco Unicorns in the match.
