Watch: In the Delhi Premier League 2024, Priyansh Arya of South Delhi Superstarz hits 6 sixes in one over

Superstarz from South Delhi Priyansh Arya made his mark on the history of the Delhi Premier League (DPL). Arya accomplished a unique achievement during a match against North Delhi Strikers at the Arun Jaitley Stadium. He struck Manan Bhardwaj for 36 runs in the 12th over of the innings, smashing six sixes in one over.

There have already been some incredible moments in the DPL’s first season, but Priyansh Arya performance really jumps out.

He imitated a similar action that Yuvraj Singh had taken in the 2007 T20 World Cup. The southpaw hit seven boundaries and six sixes in his 88 runs off 42 deliveries in the match against North Delhi.
