CPL 2024: The process of making and breaking records in cricket, the game of statistics, is going on continuously, but sometimes some such great records are also made, which are very difficult to break. In the Caribbean Premier League 2024, West Indies star batsman Nicholas Pooran has made such a great record in T20 cricket, which no batsman could do before in T20 cricket. Let us know about it in detail.
Let us tell you that Nicholas Pooran’s bat is running very well in the Caribbean Premier League at this time. A match-winning innings was also seen from his bat in the match played against St. Kitts and Nevis Patriot. During this innings, Nicholas Pooran played a brilliant innings of 93 runs in 43 balls. During this innings, he hit 6 fours and 7 sixes. It is because of him that the Trinbago Knight Riders team was successful in winning the match. The special thing was that he did not get out till the end.
Puran made this great record
It is worth noting that before the year 2024, the world record for most T20 sixes in a calendar year was registered in the name of Caribbean batsman and Universe Boss, Chris Gayle. Gayle hit 135 sixes in 2015. Nicholas Pooran has broken this record of Gayle after nine years. In the match against St. Kitts and Nevis, he hit seven sixes and touched the magical figure of 150 sixes in a year in T20 cricket, which no one has ever been able to do before him. In such a situation, there is no doubt in saying that Pooran has become the new sixer king of the present time.

After this comes the name of Puran, who now has a total of 563 sixes in his account.
