In the ongoing edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022, there have been raining sixes in most of the matches and the same was the case in the ongoing match between Delhi Capitals (DC) and Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) at the Brabourne stadium. DC skipper, Rishabh Pant smashed three majestic sixes in a row against SRH leg-spinner, Shreyas Gopal but was eventually clean bowled on the next delivery.

Earlier in the game, SRH skipper, Kane Williamson won the toss and decided to bowl first. Delhi Capitals are up against Sunrisers Hyderabad in IPL 2022 and are batting first. The team was reduced to 37/2 at one stage and then Rishabh Pant walked in to bat. The duo of Pant and David Warner was expected to steady the innings and put their team in a strong position.

Pant was looking in good touch when he started an onslaught against Shreyas Gopal, who was bowling the ninth over of the innings. Warner was off the mark on the first delivery and he gave the strike to Rishabh Pant. Pant then swiped the second ball from the slot for a maximum.

The next ball was slightly flighted and Pant stepped down the track to smash it straight over wide long-off. The third delivery was bowled slower and wide outside off. Rishabh Pant again cleared the fence over long-off and completed the hattrick of sixes.
