Rajasthan Royals (RR) opener, Jos Buttler has been in an incredible run of form in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022. He continued his form in the game against Mumbai Indians (MI) as he smashed four back-to-back sixes in an over before being sent back to the pavilion on the last ball of the same over. RR has been witnessing a formidable unit in the IPL 2022 and they are placed at second position in the points table.
In the game against MI, RR lost the toss and the opposition invited them to bat first. Jos Buttler scored another half-century for the team and continued his superb form in the ongoing IPL. The team was struggling to boost their run rate at one stage but carnage in a single over from Jos Buttler gave them the much-needed impetus. Hrithik Shokeen was bowling the 16th over of the innings. Buttler was facing the bowler and he cleared the fence at long-on on the first delivery.

The second ball was smashed again straight down the ground for the second six and then he cleared the boundary at deep midwicket on the subsequent delivery. The fourth six of the over was sent to long-off and Buttler hit four consecutive sixes in an over. However, Hrithik Shokeen bowled a delivery wide outside off and it came from the toe end of the bat. Suryakumar Yadav grabbed an easy catch at long-off and the batter was sent back to the pavilion on 67 runs.
