West Indies and Guyana Amazon Warriors batter Shimron Hetmyer wreaked havoc in the Global Super League as he whacked five sixes in an over. During Match nine of the season at Providence Stadium, Guyana, the southpaw took on Hobart Hurricanes' Fabian Allen and unleashed his wrath against the left-arm a target of 126, Warriors were lagging in the run rate, being 43/3 after the first nine overs. Seeing his team in trouble, Hetmyer took matters into his hands and began an onslaught against Allen. He started the over by smashing the left-arm spinner over long-on for a massive six. On the second delivery, Hetmyer could well have been on his way back to the pavilion as he found a man on the deep mid-wicket to his good fortune, the fielder failed to grab hold of the ball and sent the ball over the boundary for a maximum. Making full use of his reprieve, the third ball was sent over long off for a six, while the fourth one went sailing over the deep mid wicket. Allen saved himself from having the ignominious feat of being hit for six sixes in an over against his name as the fifth delivery just fetched two Shimron Hetmyer went BEAST MODE!5 maximums in an over! x #GSLT20 #GlobalSuperLeague #GAWvHH #BetCabana Global Super League (@gslt20) July 17, 2025 However, Hetmyer closed out the over with another maximum to get 32 runs of the over.

BCCI Sent Big 'Jasprit Bumrah' Message For 4th Test Against England: "Heard Rumours..."
Former Indian cricket team wicket-keeper batter Deep Dasgupta believes star batter Jasprit Bumrah need to play the fourth Test match against England. With India 1-2 down in the five-match series after the heartbreaking loss in the third Test, the fourth encounter at Old Trafford has become extremely important. Ahead of the series, BCCI hinted that Bumrah will be playing just three Test matches in the series but considering the importance of the situation, Dasgupta said that he should certainly play in the next match. He also pointed out that the eight-day gap helps Bumrah in recovering after the third Test and if India lose the match, the fifth Test encounter may turn into a dead rubber. "Jasprit Bumrah in the fourth Test, absolutely yes. I've heard rumors that the plan for him was to play in the first, third and fifth Tests. But now, when India are 1-2 behind, the fourth Test becomes very, very crucial. You would definitely want the world's best bowler to play. There is an eight-day gap between the two Tests. It remains to be seen whether the fifth Test is still relevant after the fourth Test, but the relevance of the fourth Test is considerable," he said on Star Sports. Meanwhile, former England all-rounder Moeen Ali sees shades of Virat Kohli in Shubman Gill's aggressive on-field demeanour, but feels the India batter's approach during the Lord's Test may have triggered a stronger response from the hosts. Gill has been quite aggressive during the series, and his conduct at Edgbaston mirrored Kohli's famous century celebration at the same venue in 2018. "My take is, it's fine. I think he's just trying to be competitive in front of a fight and very similar to Virat, I think it's fine," Moeen, currently featuring for the Guyana Amazon Warriors in the Global Super League (GSL), said during an interaction on Wednesday. "But then, obviously the other team, what you've done is, I think you've actually brought out the best of England and the fight and that beast England can be. "And I think it's a different side of England. They've shown all the players that it's great for the series to win. I don't know why it's getting criticised."

ENG vs IND: Gill's aggression triggered England's beast mode at Lord's- Ali
Gill has been quite aggressive during the series, and his conduct at Edgbaston mirrored Kohli's famous century celebration at the same venue in 2018. Press Trust of India New Delhi Former England all-rounder Moeen Ali sees shades of Virat Kohli in Shubman Gill's aggressive on-field demeanour, but feels the India batter's approach during the Lord's Test may have triggered a stronger response from the hosts. Gill has been quite aggressive during the series, and his conduct at Edgbaston mirrored Kohli's famous century celebration at the same venue in 2018. "My take is, it's fine. I think he's just trying to be competitive in front of a fight and very similar to Virat, I think it's fine," Moeen, currently featuring for the Guyana Amazon Warriors in the Global Super League (GSL), said during an interaction on Wednesday. "But then, obviously the other team, what you've done is, I think you've actually brought out the best of England and the fight and that beast England can be. "And I think it's a different side of England. They've shown all the players that it's great for the series to win. I don't know why it's getting criticised." Former India players Sanjay Manjrekar and Mohammad Kaif have suggested that Gill's approach, particularly his verbal duels with Zak Crawley and Ben Duckett at Lord's, may have backfired. Gill has been in sublime form with the bat this series, scoring a century at Headingley and following it up with a record-breaking ton and a double hundred in the second Test in Birmingham, which India won by 336 runs. However, he made just 16 and 6 at Lord's, where India went down by 22 runs despite a late fightback led by Ravindra Jadeja and the lower order. Moeen, who shared the Chennai Super Kings dressing room with Jadeja in the IPL, praised his batting but noted the lack of returns with the ball. "He just knows what he's doing. I think he's done it for many years. I think he's been amazing with the bat this series, obviously," he said. "I think with the ball, he hasn't quite got the wickets, but he does what he does. He's very tight. He can bowl, but he's not outstanding. He's been batting well for a few years now, I think. "Especially even last time they came to England, he batted brilliantly, and I think now he's at the peak of his batting. Bowling wise, I think he just doesn't have the wickets. With the tally, I think he's bowled well, he just doesn't have the wickets." There has been a growing chatter around Kuldeep Yadav's inclusion in the XI, and Moeen echoed the sentiment, but acknowledged the difficulty in making room for the quality spinner. "I would like to see Kuldeep in the team, but I don't know who for. Washington's bowled well, Jadeja batted well. So it makes it difficult to bring Kuldeep Yadav in the side. "I would like to see Kuldeep in, but I don't think they can fit him in." India were bowled out for 170 while chasing 193 in the third Test, losing the match to hand England a 2-1 lead in the five-match series. Reflecting on the game, Moeen said England were fortunate to post a lead in the third innings, as batting in the fourth innings was far more challenging. "I think, at Lord's it can happen. Because there's always something for the ball, even though the period where it looked easy for batting, there's always a few periods where... it makes it a little bit difficult. "I think KL (Rahul) played really well on that wicket. But I think it was obviously a very close game," he said. "I think we were lucky, it was even to the closer level. England just scored a few more runs in the third innings, which was probably easier than it was in the four innings. "But I think the first morning at Lord's, when it was doing a bit more, I thought England got through that period nicely. And I think to be 387 in the first innings there and in that situation, I think was a lot right.

Shubman Gill Accused Of Triggering England With Virat Kohli-Like Act In Lord's Test: "Trying To Be..."
